I just broke V3

I have just returned from spending my evening in the climbing gym. I found myself able to do V2s without trying very hard, and I got a few V3s down, which is very exciting for me.  Yeah...I'm tired though, so I don't know how long I'll be typing before I collapse and my head hits the keyboard, resulting in a constant stream of non-sensical letters.

I have been getting used to being an intern at Glenwood Community Church.  For those who don't know, I'm spending my summer organizing and leading raft camps on the Salmon River in Idaho. Side note: yes I said Snake before; I was just kidding.  Anyway,  I have learned a lot about ministry, myself, and others in these last few days.  I have been on a learning edge for almost the entire time, and it makes my head hurt a little bit.  It's pretty sweet to be working at a place where EVERYONE loves Jesus, and it reflects in their attitudes and interactions with others.  Sure, we'll likely have our conflicts, but we all know there're ways to solve them without being divisive and cruel, which how I'm USED to watching people solve conflicts.  Good grief, I'd better enjoy this while it lasts, because it won't last past this summer.

Otherwise, I'm staying REALLY busy, and I'm thankful for it.  It's getting easier to keep my feet on the ground the more people I reconnect with down here.  And I haven't seen a sunset in a few days...

That helps too, because Bellingham sunsets are amazing, and every time I see one here, I think of what it looks like up there.

I leave in less than a week for training/ Young Adult and High School camps.  I wish it would come sooner, because while I love my friends and family, this town is driving me nuts.
