These old pine pews have seen a lot in their 40+ years here at our camp chapel. Today two people will make a promise to have and hold one another for the rest of their lives // #GoodVibesOnly to Katherine & Ryan as the sun rises on the most important day of their lives
THIS ONE TIME AT THEATER CAMP…. (so this is what went down this past week at the annual ‘Salonathon’ genre-defying theater camp) more shenanigans at #Salonadawega
“LETS GET MARRIED” about 20 years ago we met at work & then several years later decided to get hitched at this old abandoned summer camp we had just somehow talked ourselves into rescuing. (We had zero idea what would lie ahead…the best part of youth is equal parts hope & naivety.) This life partnership, place & path has been more work than we could have ever fathomed – also a good bit more rewarding. // Fave from Leonard’s “The Future” album: “Ring the bells that still will ring. Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in”– heres to soaking up all that light for many more years ahead. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY
SNEAK PEEK: The New Sycamore Hill Guest House has hit some major roadblocks in construction. (The recent 100-year flood being one). Setbacks aside, she is finally coming together. The original cottage inside was built some 90 years ago, so we’re trying to learn patience. Cant wait to share this place with friends, family & special guestsand also tell the stories of our partners & collaborators when we open the doors. #sponsored Shown here: some construction shots this weekend of kitchen progress: Hardware + Lighting by @Rejuvenation / tile by @FireClayTile / architect magic by @cargo_north. #CampSocialHouse #wandawegahillhouse
