Music Camp: Arrival

We arrived safely and uneventfully at camp yesterday afternoon. I came up with T, someone I've known since she was a little girl - now she's a sophomore in college!

It is nice to be up in the cool pines. It's peaceful for now - the campers don't arrive until this afternoon. The staff is all here now, and we've already had one of our preliminary meetings.

Last night a few of us took a night hike to the overlook which is about a quarter-mile away. From there we could see the lights of the Verde Valley below.

We also saw a rather spectacular shooting star. It was rather large and bright, and turned several colors - even green!

On the way back to camp we also spotted two deer. Not a bad start.
