I haven't heard from you recently. I guess you are still working on that thing for Dad. Must be exciting to last so long, or incredibly boring.

I saw those lights again. I think they are ending up down near the lake. At least, that's where I see them disappear. They come from the hills. I thought there might be a cave up there so I took my den hiking in that vicinity today. We found some limestone deposits and now I'm positive that's where the lights come from.

The kids have to be in bed by nine and the lights generally don't appear for a half an hour after that. I know which direction they come from and go in now, so I am going to hang around the area where they have been vanishing. Maybe I can find out what is causing them and where they are going.

I never did tell you about Jonny. He is a really cool guy. His dad works for the state department. As a matter of fact, a lot of the guys here have parents who work for the government. Even Kevin's dad works for the government. He works for the IRS.

Mike's dad is one of the president's body guards, and two of my charges have parents in government. Jake's dad is a secretary for Congressman Damien. And Mike's mom works at the Pentagon as a secretary. Oh yeah...sorry. Mike Miller is a quiet, nerdy guy. He loves anything related to bugs and snakes, etc. And he is always spouting out the scientific names of the little buggers he finds.

Jake Corrigan is a nice enough guy, but I really don't know much about this blond headed guy. I have only talked to him twice. There are a few more counselors that I haven't mentioned, but I don't see much of them as they are on the other side of the camp. Of course, later this week, we are supposed to begin interamurals so we'll all get to know each other better.

I have never seen so many VIP's kids in one place before. Hmm...I wonder if I could be considered a VIP's kid? Dad does work for the government on occasion.

I had better close for now. It is almost time to go take up my post.

Hope to hear from you soon!
