Humming Bird Nest
Great little home page where someone documents the story of humming bird eggs, from the nest being built to the hatchings! Great quality pictures, and be sure to look for the picture where they put up a tooth pick to show how small the eggs are.

The Boy in Camp Granada

There may be a free registration required on this, but it's worth it. Summer camp has had been an important part of my life. I grew up in Dry Creek Camp... was there every summer, either with my folks, or taking a camp, or working there. Know every inch of it. And I worked in another came a few years ago, Singin' River Ranch, which led me to where I currently live, Denver, CO.

And anybody that has been to camp knows the Camp Granada song. You know, the one that starts "Hello, Mutter, Hello Fadder, here I am in Camp Granada".

The story is written by a person that actually went to came with the boy that inspired the song. I went there expecting the normal fluff piece that normally happens for stuff like this. It isn't. It gives a clear and interesting history of the song, and the sad but interesting story of the man that wrote it.

And then, it tells the happier story of the son, the one the song is based on. He was much like his father, but took a different path.

Even if you never heard that song, it's a great read. Check it out.
