Sami's sleepaway summer

From Sami's Sleepaway Summer I take a deep breath, and the pine scent is the nicest smell I've ever inhaled. I feel like I'm standing in a postcard. I've seen pictures of camp before, some taken by Maya and some on the website, but in person Camp Cedar Lake is the most beautiful place ever. I turn around to look at the green forest behind me, but what I see makes my heart fall out of my chest. Rising high above the treetops, the ropes course sways in the breeze, reminding me that no matter how pretty this place is, I'll never be a sleepaway camp kind of kid.
