Starting Spring at the end of the Camas Track

“I am going to write something on your hand,” my friend said to me. I watched as she slowly drew letters into the top of my palm with a blue pen. Curious, I peered at my hand to see the message:

“Stay Lamb”

Camas Tuath is all about staying lamb because, as we told the 18 youth who lived with us here a couple weeks ago, it is not true that curiosity killed the cat.

This summer I will work at “staying lamb” and  growing lamb like curiosity and joy into everything I do 1.5 miles from the nearest road and 10 meters from the ocean as I volunteer at Camas. Yesterday, I saw a lamb being born at the top of the Camas track! Within 5 minutes of coming down the birth canal it was bouncing around gleefully as I bounced my way back to Camas with my wheelbarrow full of field potatoes. 


I will be occasionally posting some things here but if you want to get a sense of Camas life, check out our Camas blog! I wrote the first post, "Fire with Flint and Steel", but it will likely be updated by all the staff at Camas as the summer progresses.
