I miss my friends from Israel

There we were all summer long teaching in the camp in the Poconos and every now and then we got a little break and had some fun. I was only there for four plus weeks but they were there for 8 weeks most of them from Israel, escaping the summer heat, wonderful professional artists and scientists and we had a great time getting to know each other. Some were from Israel, some NYC and Canada. We had a wonderful time and the kids learned from out professional experiences as well. The quality of the staff was terrific and sometimes we got to play a little.

Yaell cools her feet in the Deleware River waterfall. She has done a wonderful painted series about women's feet and taught jewelry at the camp.
