Carrie's reclamation

Carrie, the camp director's wife, came by the theater building and asked about her brown tights.  Uh oh... I didn't realize it, but apparently they were borrowed for the theater production.  Well, they were nowhere to be found, of course.  They were hanging on a tree out in the forest!  ;-)

Carrie wasn't too happy about it.  I don't know why, as tights aren't very expensive.  Certainly she could buy some more.  Or were they some rare tights that are difficult to find?  Anyway, the theater director had everybody start searching for them in the changing and costume rooms.  Naturally, they weren't found.

Later, I went back to the tree and untied the tights.  I figured that maybe I should return them, but by this point they were starting to get a little smelly, like mold.  Probably from getting wet and hanging in the wild.  I should wash them first.  I stuffed the tights into the brown paper bag I brought, then went up to the theater building rest room.  Using some hand soap, I washed the tights in the sink, rinsed them, and wrung them out.  Finally, I found a moment to sneak into the costuming room, then hung the tights on a hangar, wedged between a couple of clothes.  They'd probably dry by the next day and could then be "found"...
