Well, today was Eric’s 2nd day at youth nature camp. It’s just a week long, but he’s having so much fun. Yesterday they went to the nature center and went hiking, and today they went to Armand Bayou, went on a nature walk, and looked at the different animals that inhabit the area. It started to rain though, so they had to come back to nature camp early. He’s excited about tomorrow because they are going rock climbing. I’m a little nervous about that, but it’s mostly an “introduction” to rock climbing, and they won’t be climbing any overly high or dangerous rocks, but still. That’s my baby.
He’s also excited about Friday, the last day of the nature camp, because they are going fishing. Fishing is one of his favorite things to do, although for the life of me I can’t figure out why. I guess it’s a boy thing. lol. He likes going fishing with his paternal grandfather, which is something he hasn’t gotten to do in awhile. He usually comes to visit his family for a little while in the summer, so I’m sure if he does he’ll come by and take Eric out on the boat.
I’m glad for the most part that it’s summertime. I just can’t believe that my little baby is going to be in 3rd grade. Crazy.



Wow his nature camp sounds tons of fun. Fishing is a very male thing to enjoy, makes me think of that Brad Paisley song.
Yeah, I’ve never enjoyed fishing myself.
When I think of Brad Paisley I think of that song where he is talking about being “much cooler online” or whatever. LOL.
I don’t know that song I don’t think but the one I was thinking about was the “I’m gonna miss her” song, where he’s sitting and fishing and she’s saying she’s going to leave him because all he does is fish. hehe
WOW - that ature camp sounds really nifty! I wish there was something like that available when I was kid. All I had was Girl Scout Camp, which was fun, don’t get me wrong, but wasn’t nearly as neat as Nature Camp. ^^ I’m sure this experience is something he’ll really enjoy. He’s a lucky kidlet!
