We just got back from dropping Adam off at Camp Horizon. It's only about 30 minutes away from Nashville. We two of Adam's counselors. One's name is Jonathon and he is from New Orleans. He graduated from Jesuit High and was in the same Jesuit class as Adam's cousin Patrick Bray. He is currently a grad student at LSU in public health. This is his first year as a Horizon counselor. Adam's other counselor is 'Poncho', aka Travis. Poncho has been volunteering at Horizon for a few years now and is an ER doctor in his real life.
Adam had no problem with us leaving him there though he did seem a little nervous. Adam is about 10 days out from his last inpt chemo so he is at his low point regarding mood and energy. The second Sunday after inpt chemo is usually the day he begins to snap back. I think he will be loving camp before he goes to sleep tonight.
The camp is 'old school.' It's deep in the woods and there ain't no AC. The cabins looked lived in and had that great campy smell. There was a big pond in the middle with canoes pulled up on the banks. And there was a giant bonfire circle. Adam loves camp so I am sure he will love Camp Horizon.
