Show Wednesday, August 3, 1977 THE Page 9 Of Final Session Day Camp Approaches By Hank Louis Amazing how every time you make the trip back, home seems never to have felt so good. As if it were your own personal Guiness world record, there waiting for you and only you to break it upon disembarkation from the smoky, sticky, cramped airplane, your face with that layer of grime and your fingers tucking back clothes and pushing back hair and fumbling in cubbyholes for carry-ons. Or waiting for that time when you pour yourself out of the crosscountry cross-country car, three-quarters full of junk that you thought you might have needed, but of course didn't (who coined the phrase "Better safe than sorry"? he needs a fat lip); empty beer cans, paper cups sticky from root beer floats, half a fast food cheeseburger on the floor with cassettes and french fries that fell from catsupy handfuls; your whole head stuffed from too much fun, pounding thud, your body, always that much more old, aching from the same position and still burning with that healthy sun look. But then you are home, left clean for just such an occasion -no fool, you live, you learn. Your own little niche, be it a one-room, half-bath bachelor with a two-burner Campingas stove and an ice chest, or your own room in a bigger place, where you sit for hours figuring those ways to conquer, solving the problems; where the walls, bless them, listen without back-sass and stand erect for hours at your Royal service. You melt into your own chair, your rear's hard hours have paid off it molds. There is the leather mug for having ushered a friend into wedlock, your onyx ashtray, grayed, the painting you went back to like iron shavings at a magnet, five times before you had the courage to buy it, the lamp you built in sixth-grade Shop, you your short-haired short-haired self at high school graduation. The shower. Why is it the only faucet-head that will absolutely clean and soothe? It doesn't shoot at you acupuncture pins, nor does it just dribble there like that one where when you went to lather you found you had dried; and it's regular tasty mountain water, not soft, not treated with extra government gook. Your soap, your shampoo, the old-fashioned close-close way to shave. And no one else needs the hot water, so the clock changes hour by the time your towel dries you while you admire the mirror. And what needs to be said about the bed? The sun wakes you up. Coffee, juice and the morning paper allow time to corral all the sleepies from eyes. You yawn, stretch, have a smoke if you need it so good to be home. Today the odds are against seeing someone you haven't for six or seven years, it won't be a bee-line for the bar to talk over old and in between times. No. You've got to get to work ! Oh, my God! Are you late? Hurry. As you pull on your clean socks you find yourself thinking about vacations. When will you ever get another one good as the last?
