Skinners Falls, Hancock
July 6th, 2010 , mrdavidball
At camp we are told when our days off are. We get 3 days off every 3 weeks however there is no normally to it. Currently I’ve worked 19 days in a row and our next day off is the 6th of July then 12th of July then the 27th of July. Camp plans trips for us (New York City, Boston, Philly, etc) and we get to choose if we want to go on them. On this particular day we were offer a trip to Ithaca (A small college town somewhere in upstate (3hrs north of NYC) new york) but we decided to head to the falls instead.
You lose all track of time at camp as we don’t have mobile phone reception, we have one tv in the staff lounge and we don’t get the news (American or International) via any means. (*Even if we did get the American news they don’t report on anything outside the US) Days are just days. Everything is provided at camp (food, laundary, bunks) thus money now doesn’t play a major part in life. Obviously you need money for the bar but when drinks are $2 for beer and $4 for spirits (A pour of a spirit is half the glass, none of this measured crap) money doesn’t really matter. Its funny how the game changes.
“The Falls?”
We BBQ’ed, swam, drunk and had lots of fun.
