Camp Bighorn Day 9 6/28/2010

The summer camping season started today. The day started with devotions at 7:30am. We did the reading for the day in our devotional books. After devotions I had some time, I went back to my cabin and got cleaned up and ready for the day. I got the mail out to the mail box before breakfast. I then headed to the lodge to get something to eat. After breakfast the administration team met to talk about what we would be doing this week. Day campers arrived at around 10:00 and camp was officially begun. I caught up with my friend Cori Vanderwall. She was here dropping off one of her kids for day camp. Cori is a good friend of mine from home and from camp. We have known each other a long time. It was nice to see her today. After we finished our meeting I came into the office for a little while. I went out and took some pictures of day camp. I then came back to my computer and uploaded the pictures on the camp facebook page. Jeremy saw the pictures right after I posted them and commented that day camp had just started and there were already pictures of it up on facebook. I said yeah I just put them up. He and Sarah were very impressed. Throughout the rest of the morning I walked around and took some more pictures and posted them on facebook. People were surprised to see pictures of day camp up on facebook so fast. Before lunch I caught up with my friend Jessica Edwards. She will be here for day camp this week. She is teaching the kids gymnastics. She is an old friend from camp. I we have known each other a long time. Every time I came to camp when I was a kid Jessica was here on staff and involved with something. She is one of my favorite people. It was nice to see her today. I worked at my computer organizing some pictures before lunch. Then I headed to the lodge to get some lunch. I took some pictures around the lodge during lunch. I came back to the office and went through some pictures and answer some phone calls. I had a nice chat with Jen Henderson. She is a very cool, friendly person. She also works in the office. Around 5:00 Jeremy and Sarah took a break and went down to the river. About that same time I headed out of the office to do my laundry. By the time my laundry was almost finished it was time for dinner. I headed to the lodge to eat. After dinner I finished my laundry. The store was open after dinner so I spent my last dollar on a nice cold coke. It was very refreshing after a very warm day. The junior high campers had their chapel meeting at around 7:45 this evening. I went to chapel for a while. It was fun to see the kids and staff together. After chapel I talked with some people. I came back to the office and called my Mom. We had a nice chat. My parents are on a road trip to Colorado for the annual meeting of the Baptist General Conference which is now known as Converge World Wide. When I got off the phone with my Mom I came back to my computer to write up my blog for the day. I am about ready to head to bed. The first day of camp was really fun. I wonder what adventures are in store for us in the days ahead. More on that later…
