City Kids in the Woods

This was an actual conversation that went on between two of my staff.

Setting- Assistant Program Director A driving four of our new counselors into town, early evening. The four counselors arrived from California on Tuesday.

A- Hey guys, help me watch out for deer that might run out on this road. This is the time of day they are out and about.

Counselor B- If you have to watch out for deer, don't you also have to watch out for tigers.

A- WHAT?

B- Any time I've ever seen deer running, it's always because they are being chased by a tiger.

A- WHAT? Like on National Geographic? Do you mean antelope? And are you talking about in Africa??!?!

B- I don't know.

A- We don't have any tigers here! We're in the north woods.

Counselor J to B- Wait, is that why you were afraid to walk to the cabin alone yesterday?!?!

So we aren't going to have Counselor B teaching nature any time this summer...
