a little slice of heaven; HICKORY NUT GAP farm camp!

the self-serve stand that is located at the entrance to the farm

yes indeed!


the one lane bridge that leads to the farm


playing in the clay every day. pottery has been a favorite.


the morning gathering circle.
complete with shout outs and silly camp songs
see kate - just about middle, blue shirt, jeans and pigtails.
she had no idea i was spying. tee hee hee

campers artwork hung to dry everywhere
kate too busy to chat - gotta run

the tree swing - where i've found kate every afternoon

one of many magical trails cut through the dense overgrown shrubbery

the gate leading to the pool
the BOYS changing room

& this is the GIRLS changing room

so much goodness happening out here this week. pete and i could not have imagined the impact a weeks worth of farm camp could have on kate. it's been profound. i am still having a hard time putting words to it. suffice it to say that it's been as close to magic as i've witnessed in ages. we'll join kate tomorrow at 3:30 for their closing ceremony and the much anticipated DRAMA performance. kate has a big role that she is quite excited about. she is going ot be the narrator. 3:30 tomorrow - be there or be square!

Looks like Kate had a wonderful time. Seems like a neat place.
