Temperatures dropped into the 30s and 40s this week,
so we removed the A/C units from windows and vacuumed the furnace filters.
Only a few cuss words were required.
It was an occasion to reflect on a great summer.
It was busy.
It started with a couple of graduations.
Followed by a summer camp:
a dozen scouts,
an idyllic setting in the Poconos,
fun activities,
and a stream to swim in.
Then there was Youth Conference:
150 young men and women,
buses,
another idyllic setting,
a pool to swim in,
and a massive production seemingly just for us.
There was lots of swimming
by lots of boys. Thanks, Uncle Dick, for the use of your pool!
There were family reunions, and boating on Bear Lake.
There was boating on the Susquehanna River.
There were random touristy things.
a quick trip for Gabe to San Juan, Puerto Rico,
a long work trip to El Paso, Texas (Gabe shown here sporting the fashionable and functional "snake gaiters"),
It was a little hot and humid at times.
But if you sat down to create a fun and memorable summer, you probably would have made this one.
