I'm pleased to report that our motley group had a great time Saturday camping and climbing at Sam's Throne and HCR.
All our new climbers accomplished new things. And my foot's recovering well - I think I'm ready to start leading again.
Every time I climb - every time I watch others climb, experience adventures and work together to solve problems - I'm more convinced that these are excellent tools to use in teaching leadership skills. I love it.
Mother's Day was peaceful, with lots of fond memories of my conspicuously absent Mom. We ate what we shouldn't have and went to see Star Trek.
All in all, a great weekend.
Can I get a witness? After an eternity spent in rainy shadows - I saw blue sky this afternoon and I even took a leisurely bike ride before dark.
I'm back in the game. :)
in the Midwest is driving me crazy. All our plans (turkey hunting, rock climbing, yard work) have been put on hold for what seems like eons.
I heard rumblings that our President was considering a plan to seed the atmosphere with particulate pollution so as to supposedly form more clouds, cause more rain and cool the planet down.
I don't know what I'll do if that one gets approved...
Father, thank you for springtime and for the New Creation to which it points. Help us to remember during these dreary days that the sun will soon shine again. We long for the brightness of your Kingdom to come.
