We got hit with a Tropical Depression on Friday. It was pretty cool! We were woken up at 4am by an incredible amount of lightning, rain, and wind! It was so windy that the rain was coming in horizontally. There was almost no break between flashes of lightning (although there wasn't a lot of thunder... at least not compared to what we are used to in Michigan). And the rain on the tin carport roofs was very loud! It was crazy! Later we heard that it upgraded to a Tropical Storm and got the name "Fay". From what we hear, we have another storm headed our way that might hit Friday. We don't know how bad of a storm it will be though.

On another note... our uncle and 2 cousins arrived Sunday evening. We knew that my Uncle Dick and my cousin Todd was coming but we didn't know that my other cousin MacKenzie was coming! It was an awesome surprise! We are so excited to have them! They are going to be here for a week working with the work crews and spending time with us. We are loving it! Thank you for those that took part in the surprise!

Here are some pictures from the last few weeks....

Below is a picture of a "cherry picker" (that was what it was called...I'm not sure of the technical name) with Mike on it. You can see how tall it can get based on how high it towers over the basketball hoop and light pole.The picture with Megin was taken from the top of a "cherry picker" . The picture is a landscape picture taken of the camp's waterfront.
