"Welcome to the good side!"

My camp experience was great once I joined High Adventure! I ended camp on a Friday, had Garret's grad party on Saturday, and left for SoCal on Sunday. I was going to bed in my new apartment on Sunday night, and I found myself wishing I could sleep outside under the stars. Ahhh, summer....

My feet in socks and Tevas...I actually have a farmer's tan, a sock tan, and a Teva tan...Talented, I know...

Kenny/Rodeo kills one of the many rattlesnakes of the summer...
HA staff! Minus lifeguards and Eric/Moose...Near Weaver Falls

One of the many times that the trucks broke down...

A little rock sculpure I made near the waterfalls...

I'm here!

Yea, I am back at school! I have seen a lot of people I know, so it has been really fun!!!!! My office wasn't too bad, either.
I had a good last week at camp. I miss my fellow counselors and directors and wonder what they are doing now with all that free time! Crazy...I felt very loved as I left the pizza place on Friday night. We went out as a staff to dinner after all the campers left. It was great.
Any way, I am here, and tomorrow I will put up a gazillion pictures of my summer!

Snacktivity

Well, I have one more week of camp. We had our staff banquet last night, which was really long and really fun. I am going to miss my fellow counselors and directors. It was kind of funny to see everyone dressed up. When I get my computer fixed and/or get a new one, I will put up pictures from the summer.
The snacktivity comes from the packages of "David" sunflower seeds that are consumed every week by the male counselors at Bowman, because eating sunflower seeds is not only a snack but also an activity. Welcome to snacktivity. The most common flavors seen at Bowman are dill pickle, ranch, barbecue, and nacho cheese. Mmmmm [gag]........

Life races on...

Back to school in 2 weeks for my other job.
Lexi Jenks married Ryan Correll yesterday. It was a beautiful wedding.
No trip to WA. Too expensive, plus my partner-in-crime is not able to come.
I think I need to buy a new computer.
I turned 21 on Monday (July 30th). Yesterday I was asked if I were over 18.
Off to take a shower before camping for 3 days. How many people do you know that get paid to canoe, rock climb, camp out, cliff jump, and hang out with teenagers?

--Quote--
Jon/Pacha: When I was bad, I had to muck out the horse stall.
Me/Masada: You have a horse?!
Jon/Pacha: Actually, she just died.
Mark/Woody: Way to bring it up!
-Jon/Pacha pretends to cry-

*Hehe, I finally love my job.
