Home and Away

We dropped off Conor and Emma at camp on Sunday. We'll be picking up Emma today. She makes friends quickly and was ready for us to clear out once we took her to her cabin so I have a feeling she won't be as ready to come home as I am to have her back.

We've been lucky and the weather has been nice the last couple of days and should stay good until Friday when we will be picking up Conor. This is good, the strongest memory I have of my first trip to a summer camp is that it rained and rained. Thirty years later and the smell of rain still makes me think of that camp.

Trevor, Jeff and I went to the Frazier Historical Arms Museum yesterday. There are weapons and armor on loan from Britian's Royal Armouries along with arms and equipment from the American colonial period through the early 1900s. We spent a couple of hours there and it wasn't enough time to see everything. There are three floors of displays and many have nearby stations where you can watch short videos that give more information about the arms.

If you're visiting Louisville, I would recommend a trip to this museum. It's across the street from the Louisville Slugger Museum and next door to the Louisville Science Center.
