#7 Summer Vacation

My summer has been destroyed because of the coronavirus pandemic. Many sleep away camps had been closed because of the harsh guidelines given by the Pennsylvania governor. My camp was still holding out hope though. Out of all Pennsylvania camps, my camp had been one of the few to not announce closing… yet. Well, I guess you can see where this is going. One morning, the news hit. A long, heartbreaking video and email from the director. Watching the video, where one of the owners started to cry broke me and I think everyone else watching. You really don’t know camp until you go there. It is the best place on earth hands down. I get through the 10 long months of school, just so I can spend the next 2 at my happy place. Anyways, my family has been driving each other mad being stuck at our home. We decided we needed a change in scenery. So we would rent a house in the Hamptons. Sadly, we were a little late to the party. About 90% of rentals had been already rented and we had been left with the worst candies in the bag. Luckily for us, any house in the Hamptons is amazing so the worst, is still nice and has some great assets. We ended up with a house in Westhampton with an insane backyard. Yes, the house may be a bit lackluster, but it still fits our criteria. Everyone has their own room and bathroom, TVs, biggish rooms, an office space. Although I would rather be at camp in a heartbeat, I am very grateful to spend my summer in the Hamptons, and I am going to make the best of the situation I’m in, which is not bad at all.
