Finally I am home, just me and my family, after four weeks of relatives and two weeks of camping. There is only one week left to a summer which has turned out nothing like I wanted, but has had some lovely surprises just the same.
About camping.....
- there was getting up each morning never later than seven and sometimes before six
- seeing many glorious sunrises and spending hours in sweet solitude with only my heavenly Father and my thoughts for company
- starting out climbing my first mountain in a state of utter exhaustion and some pain but ending with the greatest sense of awe and accomplishment that I have ever experienced
- learning how to throws knives in my own clumsy fashion
- holding a gorgeous northern water snake (Katrina, your rubbing off on me) and watching eagles soar
- nearly freezing to death hiking to the bathrooms early in the morning and very late at night (those of you who know how easily I get cold will be more apt to believe this)
- going on the craziest tubing ride ever (I have the scars to prove it)
- getting to know this awesome guy named Lee
- finding Life is good!!!
