I shot Mud Camp today for work and, yes, it’s exactly like it sounds–a camp featuring mud. The children spend six hours each day for a week participating in mud-based activities about a mile into the woods. Today they played some sort of sumo mud wrestling game with a large ball in a pit of mud before taking a creek hike. I bailed out of the hike because I had another camp to shoot, but I got muddy enough for my taste. I’m sure I left a mud trail everywhere I went today until I was able to come home and wash my shoes off. And they’re still not totally clean. But the kids seem to love the mud and of course they all want to hug you because you’re fairly clean. That was not going to happen.
