Camp Meeting

I had an absolutely wonderful week of camp meeting at Prescott.  I missed Kelly Sue, dreadfully.  We started doing AZ camp meetings together in 1983 with only a few years missed in all the time since.  At first I felt rather purposeless because the last 19 years have been so jam packed with programing for the 7-9 year olds and this year I had no deadlines or places I had to be since I wasn't working with kids this year.

But, as the week progressed I just kicked back and enjoyed the R&R.  I was up early each morning, took in meetings at all the available time slots, got in a 30 minute walk and participated in daily water aerobics.  I even managed to read several books, and slept like a log every night.  The weather cooperated and it stayed cool until Thursday.  Even then, we had a cool cross breeze to sleep in and needed double covers by morning.

Susan and I were the last of the Phoenix bound family to pull out this morning.  We took Cody (who is working up at camp all summer) out to breakfast buffet at the Golden Corral on our way out of town.  The late morning heat as we arrived in the valley was a wake up call...vacation time is over!
