It has now been a week since we arrived home after spending a week at N-Sid-Sen for our annual trek to Family Camp. The experience was a little different this year as I co-directed with my sister-in-law Meridith, and thus it wasn't strictly a week of vacation. However, I did emerge from the week feeling like I was able to enjoy the time with family and enjoy the experience as a director. I'm still doing some evaluation work from the week and as I have been doing that I have heard a constant soundtrack of favorite camp songs running through my head. Now, strictly speaking these aren't necessarily camp songs, but they are songs that I have come to know best as songs accompanied by guitar at Camp N-Sid-Sen on the shores of Lake Coeur d' Alene. Thanks to John Eisenhauer, Jack Ballard, Duane Nightingale, and others who have provided the musical accompaniment for my memories!
Here is a partial list of the soundtrack that is still running through my head:
Blowin' in the Wind-Bob Dylan
Little Blue Top- Tony Hughes
Here I am Lord--Daniel Schutte
Part of the Family - Jim Manley
One Tin Soldier- Dennis Lambert
Spirit-Jim Manley
This Pretty Planet-Tom Chapin
Pharaoh Pharaoh--Richard Berry
Standing in the Need of Prayer-traditional
Morning Has Broken-Farjeon/Stevens
Lord of the Dance-words by Sydney Carter
Lean on Me-Bill Withers
Rock Me to Sleep-Tom Hunter
Rock Me in Your Arms-unknown
