Day 5 Report

202 words.

I got a little behind on the reporting but I’ll now bombard you with information.

Cynthia, her mom, and the kids did indeed make it safely to Spring Hope, NC and back, and a good time was had by all. There was a lunch. There was some Slip n’ Slide activity. They visited a pig and chicken farm. The kids, including a gaggle of cousins from the Spring Hope area, stayed up late Wednesday night making up games and generally doing kid-like activities. Everything was loud and chaotic and fun. During this time, Cynthia learned a new card game called “Garbage,” which she migrated back to Richmond and taught to me. The kids slept late the next morning. Samantha sustained a minor finger injury reportedly while scoring “a point” in basketball. They returned home about 4 o’clock Thursday, and then Samantha was promptly shipped off to Patient First(-After-Waiting-An-Hour) where she got a little splint thingy for her finger. I finally got to go out to the Ukrops for ice cream.

Cynthia took the camera down with her so I hope to have pictures of the trip at some point. Probably I’ll just make a big album of the whole Cousin Camp experience.
