Busy summer days

Well, I put as many miles on my car this week as if I had driven to Miami but we didn't go anywhere. Paris was in Cub-Scout camp all week, and I had to drive him back and forth because Apollo was still in summer school. (Normally, I walk with the cub scouts because our week long day camp is AWESOME here, but couldn't this time because of Apollo's school.) He had a great time, as usual, and made some great friends.
And Tritan was in computer camp all week at Princeton. Here is a video CNN did at his camp this week. Tritan's not in it, but it gives you an idea of what a cool camp it is. Tritan took 3-D design and learned how to use MAYA which is the same program that film-makers use to make CGI effects and 3-D animation. Mostly it's awesome because Tritan fits in seamlessly there. He loves learning new techniques and programs and everyone speaks his language there. The instructors think he is crazy creative and a hard worker. Which is good for him, since I don't really understand what it takes to create a truck in 3-D, and maybe don't appreciate it as much as I should.
Athena has been taking dance camp for the last 6 weeks as well. So now I feel like the lazy days of summer will officially begin this week--no camps, no school. We are sleeping in and swimming in the pool. Drop by if you have time...
