Spring

Well, spring lasted about 3 days!!! It is still raining since the middle of the week. One camp host explained it like this, “The pot guts are lining up two by two, ready to get on the Ark!”

Legacy Lake and Challenge Courses have been canceled. The camp is full of families and other organizations, but they mostly stay in the cabins!! What else can you do???? No hiking for sure. Oh, but one woman was jogging!!!

We had a fun week with Altamont Stake being in Camp Sariah, right next to us. We got to visit with a lot of leaders (don’t know the girls, we’ve been gone too long. Bishop Curtis Miles and his counselor, Kelly Bird came to the trailer and we caught up on a lot of news. Carla Todd ( married to Bruce) called from Camp Rebecca, she’s in the Roosevelt West Stake, and I went over to visit.

I’ve been so busy haven’t had time to go down to Admin to post these. But will do it today!





Busy

We are really into Girls Camp. Monday mornings the buses come and drop them off and Friday mornings they pick them up( if it’s a Stake) The first Monday , 6 nice buses pulled in and deposited 320 girls. What a site, when you’re new and don’t know what you are doing!! If it’s wards they come in cars and we have cars everywhere and have to orient them all on parking and everything else. Then Friday’s at 2pm, families start coming. After we check them in, they usually want to go to the Challenge course or Legacy Lake and we make those arrangements. They can stay until 5pm on Saturdays. Saturday nights we collapse!.

We get along really well with our Camp Host companions, Elder and Sister Henrie, from N. Logan. They help us and we help them.

On our P-day this week, we went home to Richmond. It’s been 7 weeks. The house seemed so big! All four of the kids and families that live in the Valley came Monday night. It was sooooo good to see them. I was really missing EVERY one of them. Jaynee, Kevin and family had a REALLY nice surprise for us. They had worked in the rain weeding and mowing the yard for 3 hours before we got home. The yard looked wonderful and they looked like drowned rats! Thanks again Day family!!!

Marci and Paul plan on living in our house while their new one is getting built in Hyrum. They’ll be moving in sometime between June16-20. Good luck, guys. And good luck to Shaynna and Nathan, that things will quit breaking down!!..........I’m back! Just had a knock on the door. One ward was cleaning the bathrooms and they needed more garbage bags. Good luck to Ron and Deo, that things can go more smoothly in their move to a new house!

Til next time!!!!
