Summer Camp 2000

       

Setting out to explore the scary gun batteries at Fort Hancock. The kids called it the "Johanna Witch Project."

      In the magazine where the artillery shells were suspended from the ceiling. A good place for a ghost story.  
       

Trying to catch water droplets from the stalactites. (Legend says it adds a year to your life!) Battery Potter is a lot like a natural cave, cool in the summer, warm in the winter, stalactites, stalagmites, camel crickets, over-wintering ladybugs, toads, brown snakes, mosquitoes, spiders and even an occasional bat.

      Just like an old castle, the windows are just slots for firing your weapon at the enemy.  
       

More extras from the "Johanna Witch Project."

      The end of our tour means lots of things to write about in our daily journals.
     

Shell boards help us reinforce what we have learned about all of the flotsam and jetsam on the beach.

       Camp counselors shanghai the boat!
     

What's wrong with this picture?
