After church tomorrow I will be driving back to Camp Utmost to be the Camp Nurse for the 4th & 5th grade boys' camp. Shortly after my last entry, I spent 3 days as nurse for the 7th graders. Camp nursing is an adventure... sometimes restful, sometimes stressful & tiring, but always interesting as I meet new campers & staff. I pray my way through the days that nothing happens that the Lord & I can not handle in my role. A sprained ankle was the worst that happened during my days with the 7th graders. I was still experimenting with drinking apple cider vinegar drinks to help my joint pain, so I brought the vinegar along. Guess what. It definitely helps arthritic conditions! Upon my return home, I have spent hours weeding in the garden & picking our raspberries. (Wish I could plant & harvest some of those apricot tasting ones Jeannie picked.) Louis & I also relished the preview concerts of the International
Choral Festival which Sherry spoke about in her blog. We treated the concerts as a free date. One of the best we've had so far! Too bad that this festival is held in Missoula only for a few days every three years. The hard seats were not a problem anymore than the gardening. Usually I pay for such activities with aching joints for days... I have slept like a baby and hardly feel a twing of discomfort. The vinegar is already packed in my bags again. I'll be back in a week or so. Then Esther leaves for WildHorse Canyon Camp with the Young Life group from the Bitterroot. PTL!!

Well, I guess you probably won't read this until you return from camp, but I do hope you're having a really good week! I'm wondering how Nathaniel and Ben are doing, and hoping they have no need of your services. Thanks for being on duty for them all this week.
