Yesterday I drove to the tiny town of Washington to take photos at Meadowlark Music Camp on the shore of Washington Pond. Seventy-five people, mostly adults, spent the week practicing the banjo, harp, dulcimer, flute, fiddle, guitar, voice, and more. See some of my photos after the jump...
It was a gorgeous day to spend at camp and I spent most of it wandering around and taking photos for a feature I'm planning on writing next year. But waiting a whole year to share some of the photos I took seems silly -- so here they are!
I had never watched someone play the dulcimer before, and it was mesmerizing. Such a beautiful instrument!
There's something about playing music in the woods that is just so...Maine.
Some campers squeezed in a swim between lunch and the afternoon workshop.

Guess you probably know by now that the name of the camp is Med-o-Lark. I'm from Washington originally and my parents still live there. Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
The camp's name is Med-O-Lark, but the music camp's website says Meadowlark....we went with the music camp spelling.
