Beards, Bears, and Nephews

So, I know its already been two weeks sense my last post, and I feel this urge to post all that has happened in this time, however for your benefit and mine, I’ll keep it real brief.  Here are the highlights in no real order.  First off I finished up camp with a bang, all summer I sought to see a bear in his natural elements.  One night I finally succeeded and even hit him with a rock trying to scare him away, but that was childs play compared to the adventure I had on one of the last nights of camp.  To make it real short I went for a walk late at night by myself, (not a good idea) and ended up seeing a bear scratching his back against a tree, apparently he didn’t like my interuption.  Therefore as I stared to look for cover he got on all fours and ran at me as I jumped up and grabbed a ladder and pulled myself up as he ran under me.  Obviously I left out many details however if you would like the full story feel free to contact me, I assure all of you that the tale is real and very exciting.

Anyways here is a brief summary of the rest of my life the last few weeks:  I grew out my attempt at facial hair for about three weeks and then proceeded the last night of camp to shave it along with my friend wesley into a horribly beautiful mustache for our last night out as a staff.  I then made the raod trip with four guys out to Vegas for my week with the family (hence the nephews in the picture).  While here I have got to hang with all the family, and also found out that I will have the opportunity to live out my adolesence for a little while longers as I wont be traveling to San Fran for another extra week making my arrival around the 30th of August.   So… I avoid the real world a little while longer, which I’m perfectly okay with despite my excitement for the move and what God has in store up in the bay.  Last but not least for updates I took my brother Mike out for some bowling the other night and destroyed him scoring my all time best 189 it was unbelievable (had to brag).  I have much more to say as far as my plans, what God is showing me, as well as book updates on some winners, but I’ll leave it at this for right now.
