First Summer

It’s time. It’s time to start blogging again. It has been over a month since we closed for the season. In many ways it has taken this long to settle in again – to regain some sense of routine after our first incredibly crazy summer. Below are some thoughts about our first year which I wrote a few weeks ago, but wasn’t ready to restart blogging.

We did it! The first summer is behind us and we survived. A little more experienced – for sure; a little more cynical – most definitely, a little more wiser– hopefully. In a way this was the longest summer of our lives, in other way it is nothing but a blur – a blur of events flown by.  Looking back now, the daily details are intertwined memories of a summer gone by, making us wish we kept some kind of record of the daily highlights (or lowlights), but there is something about putting in 70-80 hour weeks that deprive you of any energy for any good intentions.



“So how was it?” you ask. In short it was everything. It was good; it was overwhelming; it was busy; it was fun; it was frustrating; it was exhausting; it was exciting; it was rewarding; it was _________; (You fill in the blank, it probably fits.) There is no one word that comes close to describing our first season. If I had to pick one it would be “full”. Our lives were filled to the brim with all things campground; it is all we did. You could say, it consumed us and in the end, spit us out . And we are glad it’s over. However, it was also a good, no, a great summer, because we got to know many new amazing people, especially our staff who made each day entertaining and fun.
