Good day, space travelers! If you’re just tuning in, most of us have returned to a liveable altitude again, which really only means we’re taking more breaths between tears at the realization that the rest of the world is not A-Camp.

At least we can still hang out on the internet, right? Thankfully the A-Camp OPEN THREAD left plenty of room for post-mountaintop processing. And did you hear hear that *gasp* a lesbian movie (La Vie d’Adèle) won the top prize at Cannes?! Malaika couldn’t make it to camp, but she’s reporting her Prairie Homo adventures from New York this summer so look out for her on your commute. Also Laura made zuchinni pakoras, Gabrielle prepped us with work outfits for sweaty summer days  and Ali interviewed Erika Moen. In case our many Canadian staff members aren’t enticing enough, our Toronto city guide will have you packing for the north in no time. Things are looking up, eh?

Now some words from you!
