CAMP MEMORIES
Yesterday Gary and I went over to Dan and Michelle's house to shoot them working with Lisa on her new album.

"Bea" really wanted in on the action
It's a collection of "campfire" songs, things you remember singing when you were a kid. I remember most of the songs from going to sleep-away camp...something I did most summers. When I was 9, I went away to a Jewish summer camp for a month. My mother was a budding photographer at that point and had been hired to shoot the camp's brochure. Instead of taking payment for the job, she sent me to camp for the summer. I came back singing tons of songs and prayers in Hebrew. My family thought it was the funniest thing ever considering that we're not jewish. The last summer camp I went to was at age 14. It was called Camp Netimus. Sara Rue (she was Sara Schlackman back then) of Less than Perfect, Phenom, Roseanne etc. etc. was one of my cabin-mates.
I remember she was always practicing her singing and was very much into the acting thing even back then. At Camp Netimus my friends and I always played tricks on eachother. One night we turned off all of the power in all of the cabins. Another night we kidnapped a bunch of 6 year-olds and moved them into other cabins while they were sleeping. Then there was the old saran wrap over the toilet seat tricks and others. I was a victim one time when I woke up and went out to the flagpole where everyone met each morning, I looked up and saw a HUGE sign that said "Justine's Undies" and dangling from the poster board were 10 or 20 bras and panties. I didn't think it was very funny at the time. :)
