So it's Monday morning and we're all lying in bed trying to figure out if breakfast is at 7:30 or8:30. We're going surfing today. it's going to be pretty cold, but should be lots of fun. I've never gone surfing. The waves are going to be 9M or 30 feet high.
This past week we were in class. I liked it, except for the long sitting. My back kills after about 2 days of sitting so after about 10:00 I can't really sit anymore and it's hard to focus. I don't have a lot to say about the class, but it was good.
I'm pretty hungry right now, and I'm missing breakfast. So I'm going to go eat and be a happy camper.
Your Grandpa,

Another week and counting,
So we just completer out first day of our second class. I don't know if I was created to sit for long periods of time. I got a good long sleep the night before and was well rested, but as the day went on I found myself getting pretty tired. After the class ended I went up to my room and took a nap. A 2 hour nap. I Missed dinner and it was hamburgers. I LOVE hamburgers, but I do love sleep as well. I think it was well worth it, but I am hungry now.
This past week we were going to go Surfing, but due to some weather conditions we did not go. We went caving and swimming in a pool. As I got out of the pool I realized that I never actually went in the pool. Just the hot tub and sauna. It was good. We also did a ditch the girls night, or they ditched us. But we left camp, and they slept here so I think that we ditched them. We ate some steak and played some video games, and even though we ditched the girls, they are all around. We got the privileged to interview 4 Godly women and ask them their opinion of some things. It was pretty cool.
This weekend there was a woman's retreat. It was pretty good I guess. I just did homework.
This Sunday I helped with the kids program downstairs. Me and Matt M ran games. I don't think the kids understood half of them. We were laughing and having a good time, but the kids just looked confused. It was good times.
So I don't know if anyone's really reading this...Or really know if this is up...So if you read...drop me a line...that'll be cool...yeah

Time to relax
What's up people?
So this past week we were on a boat. Not just any boat, a pirate boat. It was pretty cool. We were able to climb to the top of the masts and swing around. We played some crazy games that I'll never forget, and sang some songs that I don't think I'll be able to forget. There was some pretty cool times for sharing and group bonding. I was pretty tired for most of the trip though. The beds were pretty small and I'm a very light sleeper. Probably my favorite time on the boat was quite time. There was a time for about 2 hours when there was no noise. It was so nice. It was one of the best sleeps I had.
As soon as I got back and by as soon I mean the next day around 4:30 in the afternoon I went home for Thanksgiving. It was nice to spend time at home with family and sleep in my own bed...ish. I ate so much food. I weighed myself. I gained 2 pounds in one meal. Not my record, but I still think that it was a good achievement. I got back home about a hour ago (7:30 monday night) and was just about ready to get ready for surfing. I found out that we're not going and we're doing other things instead. I'm a little bummed that we're not going surfing, but releaved at the fact that we'll have time to relax and do some home work. So stoked.
Till next time, just chill like a penguin.

Ouch!
Hello people on the Interweb,
So as I sit here in the alcove trying to remember what I just read my mind is hurting. This next class that we are taking is Hermeneutics. I'm only 2 chapters in and my mind is already like huh? I'm pretty stoked for it manly because I have no idea what it is or how it works. I have a feeling that I will learn a lot from this class. Funny side note. I once heard a English professor talk about the term "a lot". He stated that the term "a lot" actually started as a term for a piece of land. Example. Some one would by a lot to build a house on. Some how along the line we now use the term a lot to describe a large number or a great deal. Weird.
This past week was pretty cool. It was our first week in class. I'm not going to sit here and tell you I learned a great deal of new stuff, but it was a great refresher course and a great reminder. Some times I found it hard to focus. Many because my back was really starting to hurt after the second day. But the times that I was able to pay attention, I really liked. It was a hands on course which allowed us to get up and move. I really liked that. We created a little sanctuary some where on the grounds of camp and had our little alone time with God. Some times we were to read scripture and some times just pray. And some times it was a combination of both.
This next week is going to be a little different. We're going on S.A.L.T.S. I don't remember what it stands for, but basically we're going sailing for a week and some how classifying it as school. Pretty cool. I know. I have no idea what we're going to do. But I've been told that the guys rooms better be cleaner the girls or something bad will happen...dun dun dunnnnn....
I dunno what else to say right now, so I'm going to leave you with one thought.
What doesn't go good with cheese?
