i've always loved horses so calming to ride
Star - I rode horses up till I was 11, and we moved to Washington. My sister and I showed Hunt Seat. I loved it.
Lane might like it if she tried ..... she has never been around a horse, but she loves animals, so if she got a nice, calm pleasure horse, the kind you could hug and hang all over, she's probably be in heaven.

Star - a sleep over wilderness type camp I guess .... she wasn't real specific. LOL
In her elementary school, at the end of 5th grade, they all go camping for a week. I stupidly volunteered to be a "parent counselor" type thing, but Lane had fun. They slept in cabins, did the kayak, swim, archer thing, the whole schibang. Plus had classes about wilderness sustainability, oceanography, all that tree-hugging stuff Washington is so well known for.
Looked at a few web-stes and Lane put the kabosh on "girls only" camps, no kayaking or sailing and no mountain climbing, so I am not sure whats left. There is one on one of the San Juan Islands that is a French Camp ..... set in a French Village, and they learn to speak French and cook! Sounds cool to me. LOL
Horseback Riding camp? However, you could create a monster. Then again, young girls who fool with horses are busy, busy, and she might end up having a life-long love for horses and riding.

hi sun
so true, it's expensive but it will keep her busy
Yep..... the little girls who had horses at the barn where I boarded didn't have much time for boys lol. They were also more mature from having a responsibility and having a lot of one on one with adults in a casual setting.
Welcome back Mike

Hey Mike, hey Star ....
I watched this Walking Dead thing .... Eeeewww!
Was looking on the computer also as DD pops up and says she wants to go to camp next summer.
Wait... She decided she wants to go to camp while you were watching the walking dead? Send her to survival camp! LOL
the horse related camps and the French village camp sound fun though.
I had a kind of similar experience.. I was in brownies when I was in my birth town, we did all sorts of fun stuff like camping and hiking, catching and identifying bugs, learning plant identification and uses, how to build fires. Typical scout stuff. When we moved to my "hometown" I was old enough for girl scouts. I dunno if it was just the scout master I ended up with or if it was that town in general but all we ever did was sit in an art room in a local elementary school and play with construction paper. Now I took summer school art classes and went to art camp and almost all my electives were art... but.. really? I wasn't in girl scouts for art, I wanted to do scouting stuff. I only lasted a year before I gave up in disgust. And my art classes at the time were on the order of calligraphy, pottery, kiln fired enameling, metalworking (soldering with torches, not just playing with beads and wire)... much more advanced stuff than construction paper and pipe cleaners.
Wow! that sounds like quite the crafty youth you lived!
I wasn't as fortunate on hands on crafting while growing up, but creativity was alllll around me constantly, my best friends mother was an abstract painter, I love the smell of oil paints drying and all her friends made an impact. So, I painted as well then. I moved to the US at 13 and my world turn upside down, so I didn't paint much then. When I went to college I was majoring in Psychology and I took a general arts class and my passions were sparked again right away. Since then I have made a living making semi precious stone jewelry, wands made out of horn and copper with crystals, bead looming and leatherwork, stained glass and off course flameworking. I took a path were I have constantly worked with professional craftpeople as I have learned their trade, for the most part. I was self taught in leather and wand making...I mean, where's there a wand making school, anyway
Good Morning everyone, I've had a mixed weekend of woes, fun and work. My schedule has shifted slightly for the time I have left in my North Carolina studio. I have been asked to completely shut down my facilities instead of departing for the winter. It's a mixed blessing and added stress to me. I will be liberated to participate in studios with peers that I share joined studies with more hands on next summer. I am already creating a schedule and it's going to be awesome! I ; as well, now have a heavier workload appropriating equipment I was going to leave here as well as dismantling my studio. I am grateful to have a two week window to make this happen, but I'll most likely not be as frequent here while this process unfolds. My flameworking setup is going down last tho....I mean the day before I depart on Nov. 8th...so lots of quality packed custom and development glassy time left here, for sure
Ok, have an awesome one...I'm off to prepare for shipping to Bert tomorrow. I'll check in here and there for messaging during the day.
