When I was a kid my dad would always bring me and my 3 siblings to outdoor concerts. No, not kid-focused concerts and not even “cool” concerts – his genre was always bluegrass (a genre I have come to love because of my dad’s influence). We would go camping at Strawberry Park (in CT) every
This was “A’s” second week of summer camp! I’m happy to report that he is having a blast. According to his first letter home, the highlight of his trip was going SCUBA diving and seeing a submerged cinder block and tree log (I suppose that’s pretty awesome for a 10 year-old). He made whoopee pies,
