This morning we say goodbye to our two-weekers (or tweekers in camp parlance). On Monday we will receive a shipment of new tweekers, though these will be older kids, near in age to the 4-week credit kids I teach. And after theses tweekers go today, our cabin is closing down and we're all moving to available cabins closer to the main area of camp. Below is a picture taken of me and Zhenya (the other cabin counselor, kneeling center) in Novgorod with the 10 young men we've been living with for the last 2 weeks in close quarters. Zhenya and I are splitting up and taking 5 each to new cabins (I'm going to Minsk).
So, Monday we receive new kids and begin the second semester of the "year."
This weekend, though, we all get 24 hours off. I'll be spending it in the sleepy little summer town of Detroit Lakes (famous, at least, for its two laundromats)...
More later...
Poka!
