July Log...so far

It's been a busy month and we aren't even halfway through it. Friends Camp was a huge success. Penelope is now a convert, not necessarily to Quaker life (don't think much of that sunk in) but definitely to the quintessential outdoor camp life. We loved it.

We then jumped in the car for the long journey to Maine. A belated Happy Fourth to all of our friends out there. We didn't get fireworks this year...too foggy. We made our own.



But we did make an awesome dessert.




Plus we did the local parade...very local.



How about this for scenery when you are on "the scrambler" at a carnival?



After our fill of crab and lobster and the ocean, we raced back to see Nanny and Poppy! What a treat to have them in town. Despite record heat, we were undeterred, visiting New York, New Hope, and Princeton, of course. We are looking forward to seeing them again in another month.






In between, there isn't a moment when Penelope doesn't want to be outside with her friends. Playing is the activity of the summer, and there has been a lot of it.





This week Penelope is at Broadway camp. What a life. Hope everyone is enjoying their summer as much as we are.
