This week we had camp at "The Kingdom", Waterfall Arts' original site, spotted with studios, surrounded by trail-crossed forest and of course, a beautiful stream with a waterfall. It was a low-key affair, with just two campers - both loved hiking the trail and "conquering the river", so we did some of that just about every day. We did get some art making done, too! Here's a guide to our week, in pictures!

Success! A mound large and strong enough to withstand
a hole bored through its base. Nice job… now can we have some sand back? |

Weaving on loom-frames we made from sticks. |

Watercolors and drawing way upstream from the falls. |

Bubble snakes with a waterbottle+sock blower.
Lily was the only one to enjoy slimy sand. A lot. |

Afterhours debriefing. |

Jacob's stick-pal. Lots of these hanging around!

Free time out of the sun, to use whatever materials... boy, was it quiet! |
