love always, clara: Impromptu Road Trip?

I had always fantasized that one day, once I had my license, I would drive up to Carlisle, PA, and absorb the wonderful Dickinson air and CTY memories.

Well Carlisle session 1 shut down early.

So I got to take that road trip... picking up my sister.

It was a nice drive, actually. Long, yes, but no traffic, a good mix CD that I just made, and nice weather.

Anyways, I can't think of anything to match the tragedy of what has happened to the nevermores of 09. There's an emergency passionfruit tomorrow.

In the name of nostalgia, and because I've been wanting to digitally document it anyways, I'm posting my passionfruit from last year. There are only a few people who will appreciate this, or even know what I'm talking about, but I think it's worthwhile anyway.

[Note to non-camp people: Best move along. Nothing to see here.]

*This photo explains-

So that was obnoxiously long, which is why I didn't say all of it at the last passionfruit last year. But understand, I'm trying to summarize the best nine weeks of the last three years of my only 17 year life, in a page and a half. It's hard to do.

And sorry it didn't make any sense, non-camp-people.

Love always,
Clara
