      I've been thinking about camps for some reason lately. This morning I was thinking of a Happy Camp and I might try to write a book for that but, I also was thinking how fun it would be to have a SVS Creativity Camp just to meet each other and have fun doing creative things with each other and our families that might like to come too. A nice break from the stressful aspects of trying to create "perfection" 🙂 and just have fun. Pot lucks, art, swimming, doing nothing, reading kids books together...maybe our own! Anyway, just wanted to share my thoughts.

            We are discussing doing a 3 day SVS retreat. The first one will probably be in Salt Lake city. Maybe next spring.

                    @aska Europe would be cool 🙂 Maybe we could have several camps in different regions 🙂

                        Hey! If anyone wants to come to California I might be able to set something up at The Sons of Norway Camp in Alta, CA. It isn't fancy but there are places to camp in tents, a couple of kozy cabins, some dorms and a house that can be rented. There is also a pool and nature around to sketch 😉 A firepit of course....
                        Indoor recreation area and kitchens. Affordable too!

                                        SVS tour is what I think is needed. You three on a bus, going around the country like rockstars and by the time you get back you will all have long hair and tattoos.

                                        If you three plan to do CTNx, maybe that can be the first? Not just because i live in SoCal 😉
