My son got off the airplane from 8 weeks a camp this afternoon wearing mirrored sunglasses, a serious tan and about 4 more inches of height than when he left. Although he is still young (13 this week) I realized very clearly that if there was any "little boy" in him when he left, it had been squeezed out by hormones and experience. He regaled us with tales of an 8 day backpack and canoe adventure at the Mississippi headwaters, a four day horse trip through the Minnesota countryside and various other camp activities with his cabin-mates.
