Performing my Civic Duty

I spent 4 days this week serving on a jury.

It was an interesting experience, to say the least. I knit in all of our breaks, and ended up with 6 dish/washcloths by the end. I figured at least the downtime, when we can't talk about the case, wouldn't be wasted, and I still could participate in other conversations.

You learn some of the strangest things about the other jury members when you are confined to a small room day after day. (What venues have cheap food, movies about juries, etc.)

I am glad that it was a short trial though. And that we were not sequestered.

I didn't do much of anything else this week, except for go to court, go home, and knit during the day.

I am digging out of the piles of e-mail that accumulated over 6 days. Better get back to it.

Camp, Round 2

K is now at camp. We dropped her off yesterday afternoon. She was bouncing off the walls, she was so excited.

I hope she has a great bunch of girls this year. Last year, there were some divas in her cabin that weren't very nice. But, hey, she survived, had fun and is back for year 2!



Here she is at last year's camp.

And how about a few more: (Can you find her?)
