A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words!

It's been awhile since we posted primarily because it's summer at camp which means no time, no good internet, and not much energy at the end of the day.  So here are some pictures of things we are seeing.  One thing we are experiencing is a bit of dining diversity . . . this week one day in our dining room we had Mormons, Baptists, Mennonites, and an marathon runner from Estonia training for the summer Olympics in Brazil in a few weeks . . . all at RMMC!

Betty's favorite spot

Summer staff at first worship service - a great group of kids!!
Volunteer youth group from FMC in Iowa City - they worked hard!!!

Jonathan, nephew David, and two staffers hiked to Devil's Playground to view the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.

We finally made it to Raspberry Mountain (Chris Way!)

"The Heavens Declare!"

Mountain Sunflowers at about 11,000 ft.




Hiking back down from Sheeps Ridge




Hearse for sale at a little mountain town called Guffy.  Little handwritten sign in the window says "stay out!!!"
Last Chance Antiques - indeed!
Creative little campsite during Roots Music Camp (There are flamingos in the Rockies, Sue Plank!!!)

This reminds me of "Little House on the Prairie" schoolhouse! ... Hartsell, Colorado

Self-explanatory!

Birthday Card - Where the only tweet heard is the song of a bird... | Ben Crane | 2004522-P | Leanin' Tree
Where the only tweet heard is the song of a bird, and the internet is down all day! (to the tune of "Home on the Range" Copyright by Leanin' Tree Cards) This was on a birthday card sent to Jonathan from his mother. Describes what we are experiencing !!!  We are doing this post at the library because of slow internet.
