No one woke us through the night....we slept till 7:15.
11:00AM...we headed to Pataps.co Stat.e Par.k for our hike over the swinging bridge and a trail or two. The cousins complained like crazy during the first hike.... a flat trail next to the river. It lead to a tunnel with a small stream running through it. Now that's more exciting... tunnel, water... they came alive. On the way back to the swinging bridge, they complained again.... hot, tired, thirsty, hungry, hurt....whatever they could think of. We found a bench in the shade, ate our picnic lunch and rested awhile.
Camp Director asked if anyone would like to go on another hike to a waterfall. All the girls went and C. decided to stay behind (I stayed with him). Of course, right as they were almost out of sight he decided that he wanted to go. So I told him to catch up and I would follow. THEY ALL LOVED IT. It was everything a boy dreams of... rocks to climb up the mountain, rocks to climb in the water, rocks to climb just to climb. The girls were pretty excited too...
I was a wreck and told my Camp Director husband that he was going to be dead tonight. I even asked the cousin's where I should bury him, they said the pool.
But now that all is well.... I'll forgive him for making me enjoy the fun and memories.

At home we cooled off....by....guess what???.....SWIMMING. One of the things the cousins have enjoyed is a huge float in the pool that they named Happy Boat. Everyone is happy on Happy Boat as long as they follow the rules of our Little Boss Boy. Jump on, jump off. No climbing on or off. You're not allowed to waste water. The boat will pick you up at one of two places only. We finally had to give Boss Boy 15 mins to be the boss and then the rest of us got to have fun on Happy Boat.
Then off to the Awards Ceremony of one of our little campers. K. received her trophy for swim team and an award for being the most spirited participate. We are proud of you K.
Everyone enjoyed swimming at the community pool - V. K. and C. all enjoyed jumping from the diving board, something we don't have at our pool. And our little P. finally learned to go under water. All she talked about on the way home was that she wanted to get in our pool and swim more ...under water.

We ended the night with popcorn and a movie (not swimming).
Only watched 1/2 hour....everyone was tired. Everyone was asleep quickly.
