Our Hero had his first day of YMCA day camp today. It's called Kici Yapi. It's out of the Cities a bit, as camp grounds tend to be. Joe takes a bus there with Graham, who is a fellow camper. When Julie asked Joe what he'd done at camp, he said, "Swimming, face painting. . .rode a bus a long time--like an hour!" (Later, he quoted a two hour bus ride.) He allowed that he sat by Graham on the bus, but apparently, there were no words spoken--not even, "This bus ride is, like, five hours long, right?!?!" Turns out they also made lanyards today and went bouldering. Julie asked if, after they got their faces painted, they went around roaring like tigers and Joe said, "No!" in a you-don't-know-much-Mom tone. (Apparently, not everyone got made up like a tiger.) But Our Hero had fun. He wants to go back tomorrow--in spite of the nine hour bus ride.
