While many of us enjoy our camping time there is something I have been doing for the past 10 years that really helps to keep me young. Each summer I spend a week doing mission work with a group of teenaged. The camp has grown from 8 campers the first year to over 60 this year. Each year they go out into the community and do community service work. This isn't a new concept but is always fun and challenging as some of them have never done work of this nature before. This year I have a group of ...

All in all we had a wonderful outing for our first real usage. We have developed a punch list of things that need to be corrected including; a leak in our dining room slide, leak in the shower faucet and possibly the drian of the shower, the awning LEDs have some non-functional lights, and water in the pass though storage area.

Some of the sites are very smallish and the includes the one we are in. However the view of the lake is great which is good for my in-laws. However we need to work on their definition of chill in'.
