I retrieved Maya from Wildwood camp this morning and was delighted to see her again. She is pictured here with new friend Amanda who, as it turns out, is a member of our church in Concord and someone I am sure we will see again. On the ride home I learned of Maya’s many exploits ranging from the invention of bumper kayaking to paper making. She has asked if she could attend for 2 weeks next year, a pretty good indicator that she had a great time. As I described my week to her she learned of my close encounter and photograph of the dragonfly from my kayak. After she heard my description of the little creature she told me that it was a damselfly rather than a dragonfly. Wikipedia confirmed her assertion and I shall have to go back and edit that blog post. Wildwood could easily be named critter camp as the kids spend a great deal of time studying nature. Maya, it appears, was paying close attention.
