It's August

Crazy to think about...August seemed so far away just a short bit ago. On one hand, I'm always amazed at how time just rushes by sometimes. On the other hand, I'm excited because that means that hot summer weather won't be around forever! (insert global warming joke here).

Camp was awesome, as usual. A great group of kids this year, and I particularly enjoyed the fact that since I've been a counselor now for three years, I actually felt like I knew some of the kids. Visiting home was also great. We actually had time to take Jeremy around to some of the cool history stuff in the area (World War I Monument and Museum, the Frontier Trails Museum, and the Truman Library). I learned a lot about World War I that I'd never known before. We also had a surprise anniversary party for my parents (30 years) which turned out Awesome! They were very surprised and really loved it.

Anyway, that's July....
The next "big thing" is a hiking/backpacking trip the weekend of August 24. We're headed to South Carolina with our friends Max, Ryan, and Nicole and their two beagles. I think the trail includes the highest pointin South Carolina, which will be cool.
