Summer camp work was fantastic! Yay for youth art outdoor camps! Great to see old friends, children who are now young adults exploring the arts and nature in a beautiful area. We (4 groups of about 10 students) made zines in a week, and each took 2 home of our creations. That felt really good.
I've made some bold choices about the upcoming school year work cycle. Really looking forward to all the possibilities. Barely touched back in town and already the time comes to drift off again. Taking my son and daughter back to my hometown, checking in on some friends and family along the way. The excitement is already brewing as one by one people check in and let me know whether or not they will be around. Looks like several people will come through and then the journey will unfold as people are available and inclined. I am staying with folks who truly love me and who have known me for most of my life. I can't wait to see them! Friends from high school, in-laws (of the ex), family I haven't seen since way back... lovely.
I sort of want to take the kids on a tour of my middle school and high school towns. Show them what I used to do, and share stories. Take them riding along the beach bike paths. I will miss my current town, cause the weather is piping hot goodness, but i am so looking forward to a change in scenery. I hope that it will inspire the kids. I need to take some time and just hang out with them, doing fun stuff. Things they will remember, things that will get them thinking about where they might want to head. I always learned a lot by being at the ocean. I want them to have that every day experience of sand and sunset.
I do not know how much technology i will travel with, but I will try to post pics and blogs if I can.
