Camping and Not Camping

I meant to write about camping before now, but I've been very busy. My guardian keeps me busy with things I need to do before I go back to school. I didn't know there were so many things I could do for her. And do better than anyone else. But there are!

But I want to write about camping because I liked it. I didn't think it was too grubby, even though my guardian made me take two extremely long baths before she let me touch anything when I got back. And all my clothes that I took got washed twice too. I was very clean after that, and it was like no camping had ever taken place. But I thought it was fun, mostly. Even when I fell in the and got so dirty, I didn't mind too much.

I wish we hadn't had so many different groups during the day, though. I almost always ended up with I like it when we're grouped by house better. I think the hat is very clever, much more clever than I realized at first.

Oh! Ethel came and visited and loaned me some books. One of them is a book about finding treasure, and I think it's quite good. I'm going to give it back to her at school. I mean, really Miss Mildred came to visit my guardian, and Ethel just came along, but I wish she would come more often. Or that I could invite Susan, but I don't think my guardian would. But at least I got to go camping and see everyone.
