And so it begins again..



"I therefore concluded not to venture farther, but did nevertheless."
- John Muir

Just finished packing (mostly, except for clothes still in the dryer) for another out trip with the Explore 1 students. Yesterday when I was coming off the mountain I was thinking about what a joy it would've been to get to spend more time out in God's beautiful wilderness. God knew my heart and answered the prayer that I never even voiced! I've been blesse with another opportunity to venture out into the mountains, this time teaching part of a survival skills curriculum. We'll be out three days, two nights and we'll be working on teaching the students what to do if they get stranded in the wilderness. They'll put their previous survival training into practice as they try to light fires in wet snow, find dry wood in wet, snowy conditions and fight to stay warm in windy, sub freezing conditions. 
I can't wait to get out there. God is full of blessings and I am so excited to take advantage of this one. Expect to see lots of pictures when I get back on Sat. evening as this time I am making ABSOLUTELY sure that I'm not forgetting my camera. 
Good night and God bless!

"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are bein renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all"
2 Corinthians 4:16-17
