Well, my dearest viewers, I am finally back on the computer for now.

My new schedule is that I will be blogging/visiting your blogs on Tuesdays.

Alright, time for an update. Several things have happened since I have been gone. I have had VBS one week, and two days later, I went to a Christian church camp. The day after I got back from camp, we had relatives come to my house for three days. Then they left this morning.

Talk about busy!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Alright, just a little bit about the camp.

The camp is located in the middle of nowhere, out in the sticks, so that it's away from the influence of the city.

It has a lake which you can swim in, and is surrounded by corn-fields.

In the lake, they have a giant blob, which catapults you into the air when someone else jumps on it, a waterslide, and also ziplines (not to mention a floating dock which you can swim out to).

The blob is a thing of terror for me. The second time I got onto it, I flopped my head back just before a guy weighing close to 200 pounds jumped onto it.

WHIP-LASH!!!

I flew up into the air, my headed swimming, everything in a blur. Then, I hit the water on my side, bruising my hip.

Ouch!

That is why I have a fear of the blob.

------------------------

The camp was a Christian camp, run by the YTC (Youth Temperance Council). The kids were very good, and knew how to behave, which was a blessing.

The leadership was amazing, because they were responsible, and kept the kids in line, while also interacting with them.

The band, called S.H.A.R.C. (Serving Him A Risen Christ), was awesome. I got to personally interact with them, and spend time with them, and get to know them.

-------------------------

Another great thing about the camp was that my First cousin-in-law once removed Steve and his wife, my First cousin once removed Carolyn, were in charge of it.

It's always nice to have relations to the leadership! :-)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That was my awesome week at camp!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alright, I've got to go now. I'll hopefully be back next Tuesday with another post!

Thanks for reading!

~Nick
