This August was likely one of the busiest I've had for a long time. My son went off to camp (Kilcoo) up in Haliburton. The place is amazing, and promotes a very environmental attitude and lifestyle. There is no water ski program, but simply a good solid paddling, canoeing, rock climbing, and tripping camp. They don't even allow any iPods or other electronic toys. As parents we aren't allowed to send up food, and therefore the young men have to live life with a limited amount of sugary drinks and candies. I have to say they do a great job of instilling well earned confidence in the campers.
Aside from Jake heading off to camp, I travelled to LA on an emergency trip to look after my grandmother. Thankfully she is doing better. While there I had an opportunity to head into Santa Monica, where I met with a number green minded individuals. If any town is green, it is definitively Santa Monica. I'll fill you in on some of the details in a short while, but felt it was important to get some down for the month.
Have a great Labour Day.
