Camp Crafting

It's been a rainy week here and I have been inside a lot. I've also been trying to avoid the insanely high pollen count. I swear the air is so thick you have to chew it! Ray drove up to camp last weekend with a good buddy. It was pouring rain, but they were able to haul up the walkway pieces and dump them into place. Huge success! Ray claims they are sturdy and very stable. I'm excited to check it out soon. We are getting ready to have our first guests out later this month and we're trying to get everything all set up and ready. Because of my compulsive need to decorate and accessorize, I have been working on a few craft projects lately. I am making wooden signs to mark all the different sites at Camp Freedom. I got a dremel tool attachment that allows you to cut into wood so I'm using that along with a letter stencil to make my signs. It's a pretty tedious process, but fun. Guthrie got in on it too and made this cute sign. His media was dremel and sharpie. I also made our official guest book and a little sign stating the rules of the outhouse. I don't want things to be too cutsey, but I'm having a good time making some cool stuff to take out there. Just because there isn't a house there yet is no reason it can't be homey!
