I understand. As a camp host I experience just a little of what he's talking about. I swear there are actually people who ask wether there are lions and tigers around. (I'm in the Klamath Mountains of California!) On the other hand there are little girls like Olivia (about 3) who came up and snuggled against me after I chatted with her and showed her and her father how to pan for gold.

Becoming a camp host is one of the best things I ever did.
