We are in a small house that my grandmother just inherited. We go over to Mrs. Ketcham’s a lot to get the crab net and swim. At home we garden, work on boats, and use the computer. It’s a tradition to make and sail a boat and make S’mores every time we go to Orcas. I don’t know why. It just is. Tonight we are going over the Mrs. Ketcham’s for dinner. I’m now building a driftwood boat because my last one was taken by the tide. We rent one movie every night to catch up, and we have hamburgers and S’mores a lot on the beach.
We’ve spent a week at Orcas now, so that means the day after tomorrow we go home. This trip is the best, most adventurous thing that I or anyone in the family has ever done. I’m a little reluctant to go back home, but I mostly do want to go.
