#CBWC: Early morning at the Camp Magruder Boat House - Janet Alcorn
This week’s entry for Cee’s Black and White Photo Challenge (CBWC) includes photos depicting in or on water. As the pandemic wears on, I find myself looking back at old photos and reliving old memories of times when we could travel and gather. Better days are coming, but in the meantime, I find joy in remembering some of my favorite places. Every fall we would take our son to our church’s annual family camp at Camp Magruder. Magruder sits on a strip of sand, with a lake (shown in the pic) on the east side and the Pacific Ocean on the west. For 2 days, our son could play with other kids and have some of the freedom that kids rarely have anymore: to roam around with minimal adult supervision, climb trees, run through the forest, and just be a kid. Magruder was and is one of his happy places. Mine, too.
