A Beautiful Fall Day

For my first bike ride since surgery I decided to go check out the progress on the new bike trail in Decorah.  It's supposed to be a loop when it is all completed - hopefully next summer.  Although the flood damage may delay those plans.  It was such a beautiful day that I took my camera along.  I even saw a couple deer running through town a short way away from Phelps Park!!

Camp Opportunity

I helped out at camp again this past weekend.  I worked in the kitchen & we cooked for over 400, including staff.  There were around 396 college students that came for the Navigators Weekend!  Today I received a call from the lady in charge of the kitchen & she offered me a job working for the 4 or 5 retreats left this year.  It would only be for the Fridays & Saturdays during these weekends.  This is something that I'm prayerfully considering - I wanted to say yes right away but forced myself to take a couple days to decide for sure.  It sure was a lot of fun meeting & getting to know new people!  I just don't meet that many people sitting in my apartment studying!!  :)

Weekend at Camp

This weekend I helped out in the kitchen at camp with a friend.  There were about 150 - 160 colleges students there for Campus Crusade.  It was a fun time, but also very exhausting!  :)  I didn't get any pics taken though.  :(  Hopefully I'll get some this weekend but I will probably be even more exhausted.  They are supposed to have a little over 300 college students coming for the Navigators!  Yikes!!  I better get lots of rest this weekend.

Also, stay tuned for pictures of Elvis later in a couple of days.  My uncle is going to be Elvis as the entertainment portion of the Christian Women's Club on Tuesday.  I'm looking forward to it!

Off to camp

Wow, it's been a while since I've posted anything on here! There hasn't been anything exciting going on. The next 2 weekends I am helping out at Village Creek Bible Camp. Hopefully I will have some fun stories & pictures to share after the weekend. :) Have an awesome weekend everyone!!
