Camp Bighorn Day 7 6/26/2010

My first full week at Camp Bighorn is coming to a close. My day was quite relaxing. I got to sleep in a bit in the morning. I got up at 8:45 am and got ready for the day. I got the mail out before breakfast. We all gathered for breakfast. I got the mail sorted and distributed after breakfast. When I finished with the mail I came back to the office and worked at my computer and did some things around the office. Jeremy, Sarah, and I got some letters ready to mail. We talked for a while. When we finished with the letters Sarah went out to take some pictures. I answered the phone for the first time here at camp. It was pretty easy and fun. I think I did a good job with it. The phone did not ring much for the rest of the day after that. Sarah came back right after I got off the phone. Jeremy and I told her she just missed me answering the phone. I told her it went well. She was glad to hear that. I put the pictures Sarah took on the hard drive and camp facebook page. Around the time I finished with that Jeremy and Sarah were talking about taking the rest of the day off. I asked them and Andrea Underhill if I could leave camp for a little while. I needed a little break from camp. They all said I could head out for a little while and to check in when I got back to camp. I headed into Plains and had lunch at Subway. It was really good. It was nice to just have some time to eat and think about things. I got back to camp a little after 2:00pm. I hung out in the lodge and talked with Andrea for a while. We had a good talk. She is really a cool, sweet person. After we talked for a while I came back to the office to cover the phones until 4:00pm. No one called. I was listening for the phone to ring and trying to not be nervous about answering it. There were a couple calls after 4:00pm but I did not answer them. I did not know if I was still supposed to answer phones. I am still learning what people expect of me around the office. I was done for the day at 5:00pm. I used my computer for a while I read over and edited my previous blog entries. I enjoyed reading what I had written. I read and listened to music for a while outside. I had another favorite moment here at camp. I was sitting on a bench outside the lodge listening to Glen Payne and Guy Penrod singing the Southern Gospel song Haven of Rest, looking around at the beautiful scenery, and worshiping God. It was fabulous. I love Southern Gospel Music. It is the best music in the world. After that I walked around camp a little. I came back to the office and hung out till dinner. We had another fancy dinner last night. We had stir-fry, it was really good. The kitchen crew served us. They did a very good job. The store was open after dinner. I got a nice cold coke. It was really great. I hung out and talked with people until it was time for bed. I made a plan with some of the girls to ride to church together and get coffee on the way to church. I headed to my cabin and got ready for bed. I went to sleep thinking about what would happen tomorrow. More on that later…
