Growing up in a small town, I experienced my summers surrounded by trees to climb, bikes to ride, and plenty of mischief to get into. I often look back on those days with a feeling of longing. How quickly those summers seemed to slide on by. There was so much to do and never enough sunlight to do it all. I think that’s what made those days so magical. Coming to camp reawakened these memories and inspired me to capture a little of what I remember and live those days for a while longer.

This work chronicles three summers worth of witnessing and adventuring through the tears, the smiles, and the laughter. I found what I was chasing and I have new memories to hold on to as I grow older.
