On Saturday, Josh and I arrived at Double H Ranch, in Upstate New York, where we’ll be spending what’s sure to be an action-packed summer here at camp. Josh is going to be a full-time counselor and I’m doing my Small Animal Assistant gig in the barn. Right now training for program staff (which I am) is in process, and we’re also preparing for Camp Inspiration which is a special week of camp for children on ventilators who come with their family.

Josh and I get to have our own room, in a place called ‘Circle H’. Circle H is like a big log cabin with dorm rooms in it. It’s pretty cool for all. Like, I’ve said to a bunch of people here- camp is so far, my favourite place where Josh and I have lived together.

This afternoon me and the rest of the barn girls got to work. Josh helped me clean out the rabbit hutches and I gave all the critters some baby toys that had been given to me and that I collected from Value Village.
I'm already enjoying the camp food. They feed us good here! Today for lunch I had a veggie burger with sun-dried tomato hummus, and then chicken Parmesan for dinner.

I'm also enjoying the glorious air down here and the sights and smells of the wilderness. There is truly no place quite like camp, and I'm glad to have a whole new summer ahead of me.
