I am now emerging from the depths of what we like to call Bible Camp. I've had two weeks of training and three weeks with campers already. Five weeks with campers left, and I'm done. It's really sad to think that. My day camp the second week of June was a ton of fun, not too difficult, but so much fun. My Elemetary week two weeks ago was rough, one pretty homesick girl, and eight more girls with incredible lungs. We did the low ropes course with them too, which is probably more than they should be doing. One of my girls got dropped, and hurt her back a bit. This past junior high week was rewarding, but definitly tough. I had boy crazy girls whom I had never dealt with before, and I had to have the "we're-here-to-worship-God-not-to-hook-up-with-boys" talk multiple times. the schedule was insanity too. I worked from 10:30 on Sunday until 2:30 tuesday without a break, except of course for sleeping at night. A few unlucky counselors lost three of their seven hours off for the week. But at the end of the week we were sad to see many of them go.
I am now gettignr eady to go on a trip. this is the first trip I've ever planned by myself, and it's a little scary. We have campsite reservations, an atlas, a spread sheet with our meals planned out, and lots of lists. We leave in four days. Caraziness! I'm excitred though, we're going to Glacier National Park, and I've never been there before. Also I get to spend almost seven whole days just Chris and I, that's a record. As great as it is to be at camp together, we have only worked one of the three weeks together so far,a nd we can't really be a couple, becasue the campers aren't supposed t know, or it becomes a focus for the week.
Anyway, I need to go start my fourth load of laundry for the day, and probably shower.
The End.
