The Young Relative spent a week at a camp in Delaware, and we were curious what he would make of the tony prep-school environment. As we might have expected from someone who has grown up in the Unionville school district, he wasn't blown away in the least. The facilities were nice, sure, but nothing more than what he was used to. The cafeteria food was OK and all-you-could-eat, though the campers weren't given as many choices as he would have liked.
("Humph!" snorted his school-of-hard-knocks grandfather upon hearing this. "Don't join the military.")
The Y.R. took the sports camp opportunity to apply the scientific method and test out his hypothesis that everyone from Delaware seems to know everyone else. He said he found plenty of confirmation.
