Camp Bighorn Day 34 7/23/2010

The adventure continues. I woke up at 7:15 am. We all gathered in the lodge for group devotions at 7:30 am. We went through the devotional reading for the day in 15 minutes. We meet with our family groups until 8:15. All the staff gathered for group announcements after devotions. After devotions and announcements I went back to my cabin and got cleaned up and ready for the day. When I was ready for the day I got the mail out and then headed to the lodge for breakfast. It was nice to catch up with people and enjoy some great food and fellowship around the tables. After breakfast I met up with the facilities crew at 10:00 am. We opened the day with prayer. We prayed for the staff and campers and the events they would all be participating in during the day. We prayed for safety for everyone throughout the day on the different events. When we finished praying I sorted and distributed the mail. I helped the facilities crew clean up the staff lounge and the lodge. Then I came back to the office to work on some things at my computer. I put some finishing touches on my resume. It is nice to have that all done and ready to send out. I checked e-mail and facebook. I responded to some e-mails. I talked with some people around camp. Then it was time for lunch. We all gathered in the lodge for some great food and fellowship. After lunch I came back to the office for the afternoon. I covered the phones. I read while I was covering the phones. I read parts of four different books. I began with C.S. Lewis and ended with Ravi Zacharias. When I finished reading I covered the phones for a while longer. Then I got some receipt letters ready to mail. I worked on the letters from 4:30 pm until 6:30 pm. I had to find some money for going to see Toy Story 3 with a group of staff from camp. I asked Janelle if I could barrow two dollars from her. I would pay her back when I had some cash. She said that would be fine. I got the money from Janelle and I had enough to cover the movie. I went to turn in my money to the Tabitha. She was in charge of collecting the money for the movie. I tried to pay for my ticket and she told me someone paid for me already. She would not tell me who paid for me. I have a pretty good idea who paid for my ticket, but nothing has been confirmed. I was pleasantly surprised that someone would do that for me. So I found Janelle and gave her money back to her. I was in the office until dinner. We all gathered in the lodge for some food. It was nice to catch up with some people and see what they had been up to all day. After dinner I had a soda and some dessert. I came back to the office and typed up my blog entry for the day before. When I finished my blog entry I left the office and talked with Mindy and Mary for a while. After I talked with them for a while I came back to the office to call my parents. We had a good talk. It is always good to talk to my parents. When I got off the phone I headed to my cabin to get some sleep. I went to sleep thinking about what was in store for us the next day. More on that later…
