For the first time ever, I arrived at Camp Buster early (insert in the daylight), which left plenty of time for a photo op at "the sign." The sign is only 5 miles from camp.

After making her tile, Charlee, a 4 year veteran of camp, took her self to the pond, to wash the paint off her own paws, to the amazement of the rest of us.

Finn, first thing Sunday morning. It didn't take long for all the dogs to scare the Loons away.

Benji, the black lab shown swimming, dove into the water in search of a marrow bone that I had taken away from another dog and thrown off the dock 10 minutes before he even arrived. Benji could air scent the bone, much in the same way that cadaver dogs can smell through water. How cool is that?

The 3 of us had a great time at Camp Buster and are looking forward to next year! I have never seen Kiva more tired than when we got home Sunday - I don't think she moved until I made her go out that night :)
