Jul. 30th, 2007 09:57 amwent camping this weekend with rachel and jerad morey and a bunch of their friends; smokey, who i met last year, jerad's brother, doug and doug's new wife anne, a girl named amy who went to their church, another couple named chad and stephanie and smokey's roommate, tim came up for the last evening.
i car-pooled with smokey. really nice guy, enthusiastic about everything. it was great to spend time with rachel and jerad, although rachel got poison ivy on our morning hike saturday and had to go home early. we hiked about 6 miles and it wore me out! way more than i thought it would. the trail was hardly groomed at all and everyone else had a pace that was so fast i couldn't enjoy the scenery. i need to be in better shape.
weirdness was, turns out the next group site over got booked by bryce johnson, the pastor at white bear lake UMC, who was there with a bunch of dads and kids from the church. and it turns out he grew up in the same church as jerad, although much longer ago. there was a lot of chit-chat and community around a fire. i wished ross could have been there and missed him badly.
i got a deer tick on my foot. but not all deer ticks carry something. i am going to watch it carefully and see if i get a mark or a fever or aches or something like that and if i do i will go to the doctor, but i am not anxious to get on doxycycline again.
