only 6 weeks left

I can't believe that we only have a little more than 6 weeks left! I am so excited to start school and to move into our apartment. I have some stuff to buy when I am home for next year and I can't wait. Work has been good but stressful. Trash run sucks and dishes are getting old. Lets just say next year I won't be traveling out west! haha.

Fun over staff training!

we have been cooking/washing dishes for a while now. everything seems like i've been doing it for weeks. We have had our fun days though, we had a staff talent show, and we had our BK ceremony, it is when we get our blue scarfs that we collect pins and stuff on that stands for a specific memory or time @ camp. The talent show was so funny..a lot of people made fools of themselves, but more power to them. The weather has been beautiful, a course as soon as i buy a rain jacket. Well soon it will be time for dinner and that means MORE Dishes!!! yay! write later <3

Kids have arrived

The kids have arrived! I'm so excited to see all of them. They are soo cute! I sat with a bunch of them at dinner and they were very polite and nice. It made me wish I was a counselor even though their work is 24/7, I think it would be more rewarding. I hope to make the most of my work and hope to change one kids life, like Jeff said.
The next 7 days I will be working! I hope to feel better tomorrow and to be ready to take on the next week!
write when I can <3

Kids Come Wednesday the 17th

It is already Sunday. A week and one day since i arrived! i can't believe how fast time has flown. The kitchen staff is great and I am making some good friends. I think i'm finally adjusted to the altitude, but then i get sick, well i guess you just deal with the hand you get dealt. The weather has become great..still cool in the evenings but still nice. The snow has melted on the mountains, there almost all blue, we had a cookout tonight, the view was AMAZING!! i got some great pics of the town Estes Park and some cute ones of my room mates. Well I suppose next week is going to be a big one at least after wednesday. Write later, <3 Bye

First Week Of Camp

It is Thursday already. A week from yesterday the kiddies will show up! I can't wait! i'm working in the kitchen and my main job is to wash dishes in the dishwasher (thank God i don't have to wash them by hand) and setting tables for the meals! The work is not bad i enjoy the people i work with! one of my favorite jobs is doing the trash run (jk) it is a little entertaining cause you see weird animals in the food pit (trust me you don't want to know what it looks like, i will let your imagination do that) yesterday there was our friend the crow in the pit and sometimes there are bears (even though we have not seen one yet, unfortantely)
I am a little homesick but not nearly what i thought i was going to be. We have tomorrow night off and ALL day on saturday! well that is about it! i did post pics on FB of camp you should check them out! well i will write later ttyl

TOMORROW

I'm packed and ready to go..physically, spiritually and emotionally (i hope). Leave home at 7 a.m. and plane leaves at 10:55 a.m. fly to Dallas/Ft. Worth Texas, then off to the mountains!
Speaking of bears in the mountains, there was one spotted a half a mile down the road SCARY!! if you ask me..mom says she might see one before me haha. i doubt it..but maybe.
I will keep this updated on the bear count!
Byes <3

Four Days

I can't believe how fast this has come. Getting packed and trying to think that a week from today I will be across the country, let me tell you, it is mind blowing. My friend Karin flew out there yesterday, she says "it rocks her socks off" i hope that is the same reaction i get! I'm sure it will be.
This morning when i was cuddling with my puppy I thought how much we are going to miss each other. I play with her more than anybody. Andrea better take my place!!
