Tarp City

.....For
many years Family Camp was around the first week of
July. In the green state of Washington, the 4th of
July weekend is statistically the rainiest weekend of
the year. Consequently, we had alot of rainy Family
Camps. The dads (I'm sure led by my Dad and Jim
Martin) would rig up tarps all over the camp ground
so that you could walk from site to site and never be
in the rain. It was a site to see. The whole group
campground had an odd blue glow and the rain sounded
about 20x louder than normal....but it was super
cool. If Google earth had a feature where you could
see satellite photos from the past, I'd look up
Camano Island State Park Campground in July of 1990.
I wonder if we threw off any overhead flights or
attracted NASA's attention.....
