Red and Rover by Brian Basset for June 16, 2011

Red wants to go to Camp Rover this summer!

I never wanted to go to summer camp becauseit would have meant leaving my dogs and that was something I just didn’t want to do.

I would take summer days running free in the woods around our house or hiking through the cornfields with my dogs to keep me company any day over going to camp with a lot of kids I didn’t even know.

I don’t think Charlie Brown ever had the choice. Red’s lucky.

@ladyfingers86…yes very cute song…lol

Love Allan Sherman.

at age 12, I threaten to drive a Van home if i wasn’t allow go home. Scared crap out of counselor got into the van when dared me.

imagine how Rover felt

Darkeforce is right about Dog Camp

I loved camp too… I had my first kiss there :) but also made many friends. Learned all sorts of inappropriate songs, watched several sunrises, and learned to appreciate the outdoors. Good times!

Red needs to boy-up.

Only camp available to me when I was a kid (1940s) was Bible Camp. Not that much fun!!

I’m with Red on this – at age 31, I feel badly about leaving my cats for a week-long “word camp” (writers’ workshop.) Feeling bad about leaving husband is secondary. ;)

I wrote a song for my Mom’s birthday using that song. She loved it. May she rest in peace.
