It Was the Best of Times, It Was the Worst of Times

It was Lithuanian family camp, 2010.

I have a sweat mustache and my son is using a case of Corona as a stool, but at least our room is pimped out with a knock-off cut crystal accent lamp.

Heat? Check.

Humidity? Check.

Rain? Check.

Mosquitoes? Check.

Lice? Check.

Short tempers? Check, check, check.

And yet . . .

Home cooked meals? Check.

Childhood friends? Check.

Lithuanian ballads? Check.

Starry nights? Check.

Cool evening breezes? Check.

Coronas with lime? Check.

Nobody complaining of being bored? Check, check, check.

You can see more photos from our trip on my Flickr page, here.

UPDATE! The P-Dawg wants me to clarify that no one in our family got lice! There was lice at camp. It was quarantined. No lice here! We can still share a hairbrush and play light as a feather, stiff as a board. Thank you.
