Journal: January 14 - A day off?
January 14, 2006
It’s really windy here, but the sky is blue and sunny. Our second day off is a real quiet one. Most of the group seems to be layin’ low. Yesterday, everyone was all hyper to do and go. Some went to the RV show in Port St. Lucie; Anitarae spent the day with Katie; and Fred and I went golfing on the course adjacent to this property. Ironically, Fred hit a drive right into the camp then said, "Well, I guess I can pick that one up tomorrow." Like many new courses it is built around a condo development. There’s much new construction in the Vero area. It’s reported to be one of the highest cost areas in real estate. It’s not a particularly pretty area in my estimation so I’m not quite sure what the draw is. Golf is expensive, too so I doubt I’ll play again unless I find a cheaper course. It was nice just to get out and have fun with Fred. He’s a retired truck driver and he’s pretty low key. Just a gentle kind of guy. He’s been our tractor driver for our brush removal project.
I have an ear infection again. I spent the whole morning trying to get help at the emergency room. The information person told me they weren’t very busy today. Good thing they weren’t otherwise it may have taken all day. Four hours is a big commitment when there’s so much else to enjoy doing. I guess I’ll have to see an ear specialist this week since this problem keeps recurring.
This camp is alive with kids this weekend. We heard teens all night long. I don’t believe they ever went to bed. Actually, it’s a great sound because this camp is here to help kids to know God better. The reputation of this place is widespread. I’ve mentioned it in many places of the community and heard a positive response.
By the way, I should say at some point, this journaling is primarily for my own benefit, but putting it on the blog definitely influences my thinking. I try not to confuse my purpose and sometimes think you may find it TMI. Sorry.
