Whenever I'm back in Modesto, my friends and I like to lament (over our ritual Freckled Lemonades at Red Robin) how our lives would be perfect for reality TV.
As the 2008 school year closes, Modesto Bee sports writer Will DeBoard awards the annual "Willies" to the Modesto areas top high school athletes.
It seems only appropriate that this Fourth of July weekend sees the opening of another superhero movie.

I'm covered in mosquito bites, my hands are rough and calloused, and I'm beginning to develop an amazing flip flop tan on my feet. Yes, these are just a few of the joys I've experienced so far working at a summer camp.
It's hard to believe it's been almost a month since I came up to camp. Leaving five days after graduation, I had just enough time to write all my “thank you” cards and pack my bags before heading down to camp to spend ten weeks guarding large bodies of water and pushing kids out of tall trees. (Don't worry, I'll explain this shortly.) The whole experience has been kind of a blur to say the least.
