Art Camp

June 9-16, 2019

I recently returned from my third year at Feather River Art Camp, rooming with Chris again. It’s great fun to spend a week in the mountains creating art with fellow campers. I started each day with Thai Chi exercises, spent the mornings in my core class (encaustics this year, mosaics last), then explored various workshops and hikes in the afternoons and evenings. The dining hall food was much improved, and I learned to play Mexican Train and Rummikub so I’m ready for game nights.

There were no rattlesnakes under my tent cabin this year.

Near the swimming hole, closed for most of the week due to high water, icy cold from snow melt
I left camp one afternoon to kayak and swim in Bucks Lake.
