INSPIRATION STATEMENT
The ageless feeling of Summer Camp.
It really is true when they say that we spend all winter thinking about Summer.
Wayne and I love having guests to share in our playground. We wanted to revive the spirit of Summer Camp with some of our closet friends, and for the second year in a row, we put out an invitation to bring the gang together for a weekend to lounge, eat, play, laugh, swim, hike, read, and reminisce about the joys of summer vacation.
Our home is nestled on a long country road in the Wood River Valley in Idaho. The Bigwood River is accessible in many places nearby. Our yard is a big green pasture that can host a variety of simple activities that bring us back to the best of a summer vacation: Cornhole, Badminton, Cookouts, S’mores around a campfire, warm nights, and a star filled sky make for the perfect setting to let us melt into the warmth of a summer day, and the fresh delight of a sunny bright morning.
With a world that feels increasingly uncertain and volatile, we need to take pleasure in the simple things that most of us have enjoyed since our childhoods: summer camps, sleepovers, days spent at the lake, nights spent sitting around a campfire telling tales of past, present and future. Gathering a circle of friends reminds us how lucky we are to share the bonds of our long histories with one another.
A history of celebrations, vacations, adventure, hard times, and the best of times. To keep these bonds strong and whole, we must make an effort to keep sharing joy together, and continue to make memories together. Also to keep reminding ourselves just how important a good circle of friends are in ones life.
"Stick with friends who bring out your magic and not your madness” – Confucius
HERE COMES FALL 25: TRANSITIONAL DRESSING
