"How About Summer 2010?" You May Ask

The lost blog post from Summer '09 was actually pretty timely as James has just returned from Boy Scout Camp.  Several other activities from last year will also be repeated in some form or another.

Here's a run-down of our summer plans:

July 12-16 & 19-23: James will attend the Maine Summer Transportation Institute (MSTI), a 2-week long day camp at the University of Maine where he will learn all about transportation engineering from design and materials to laws and funding.  He had to apply and we're super proud that he got in.

July 12-15: Jeremy will go to Hancock with Mum & Dad and attend a 3-day day camp.

July 19-22: Madeline will go to Hancock with Mum & Dad and attend a 3-day day camp.

July 17-22:  Nancy will go to an IAAP international conference in Boston and visit with MHC roomie, "Aunt" Kathy and family.  [I plan to go running along the Charles and have my picture taken at the Boston Marathon finish line.]

July 25-31: Madeline to Girl Scout Camp (Natarswi), this time with new best friend, Auralee. [I'm hoping Katahdin is in full view this time].

Aug 5-7: Family camping at Seawall with Aunt Helen, Uncle Rich and cousin Samantha. [This should include lots of adventures and photo opps.]

Aug 9-13: Choir school camp for all three kids. [Note to self: don't forget to make chocolate bread for Monday's snack.]

Aug 21:  Nancy and Alan to do a practice run of the carriage road portion of the MDI Half Marathon. [Sounds so simple...but we're talking 8+ miles, around a lake, with a mile-long hill...help!]

Aug 27-29: Folk Festival!

August 28: Alan and Nancy to run Northeast Harbor 5-Miler.

Somewhere in there we hope to fit in:

~an outing to Pirate's Cove with Nancy's childhood choir friend, Amy Gautschi, and family.

~excursions to the pool, a lake, the bog, etc

~much yummy food [strawberries, blueberries, corn, homemade bread...uh-oh, now I'm getting hungry!]
