Eric's update

Today the Guides got back from their high peak hiking trip.
They were all dropped off 10 miles outside of camp and ran in
(this was planned- they knew about it so they all had their
running stuff). So, my camera malfunctioned, so I don't have
great pics, but here's what I've got. He did great! I don't have
to official time yet, but I will let you know when I get it.

finally the pics!

ok, as promised, here are some pics from the last few weeks...

Here's a picture of Josh and his group that went to the high peaks during staff training.

Here are the nurses that are up there this summer. Not all at once, but we were able to snatch a picture on a weekend that we were all here.

This is one of the instructional areas -survival. (the instructor is teaching how to make a survival shelter). The boys love to come to this area.

Here is Josh taking a picture from Josh's staff hike in the high peaks in the ADKs.

Josh is on his way to his master's in fishing with this pike. We caught two pike in 3 casts, then nothing else for two hours. it was fun canoeing on the lake and talking, well worth the time.

Thank you for understanding how busy we are, we wish we were able to talk to everyone more often. Camp life is keeping us busy! We are so blessed to be able to be a part of this community for the summer. We are half way through 2nd session and have 2 more sessions to go (which means 5 more weeks). We appreciate your prayers!

so, this whole technology at camp thing isn't really happening. there is one computer at camp that has dial up, so slow! and the library has extremely limited hours. so, sorry these are so few and far between. but to get on with it...
we are having a fabulous time here. (oh frustration, i can't get this computer to load the pics that we drove the 20 minutes into town to do, so, maybe next time and i only have 15% battery)
Josh had a great time on the staff hike a few weeks ago. It has been such a blessing to see all these godly men interacting and loving the Lord. We haven't had any major injuries, a few stitches, and big bruises. I am trying to learn camp nursing, it's just so different. i feel like i'm not really using the skills of nursing that i have, but maybe it's just that different. it's been awesome getting to know the other staff wives and the staff kids. sarah and i started a girls book study on sunday mornings, we've really enjoyed getting to know their hearts.
please continue to pray for us and our marriage in the business of camp life. pray for safety as always, us and the Wells have enjoyed healthy blessings so far.
we loved having the Hofferts and Garrett up this past weekend! it's was great to have familiar faces around. we hiked up chimney mountain and explored the caves in the surrounding area. it was a blast!
weather has been good, a little on the cool side for me-perfect for Josh. in my book you shouldn't have to wear jeans and a sweatshirt all day in july! :) love you guys! I'm down to 9% battery, so I have to sign off, maybe pics next time! I'll work really hard to... and I'll have lots of 'em!
