Josh is holding on to his part-time job, plus taking 30 credit hours of mechanical engineering for his senior year at the University of Florida. To help him manage his schedule better, we sold him our Toyota Camry. He is planning to drive to work and bike to classes. I took this picture after Josh spent over three hours scrubbing his first “wheels” inside and out. Continue reading Josh’s First Car
Ben and Josh had frequent flier miles that were going to expire this year, so they went to Seattle for a five-day trip to spend time with friends. They had a great time and apparently liked this caterpillar statue in a museum. Continue reading Ben and Josh in Seattle
After Staff Training, we went to visit our financial partners and friends from Green Bay, Wisconsin, to Grand Rapids, Michigan. Instead of turning around and re-tracing our route, we continued the drive and went around Lake Michigan. We slowed our pace and stopped to see lighthouses, beaches,and historic sites. This photo is of the Mackinac Light and Bridge. We also went up to Sault Ste. Marie and saw a little bit of Lake Superior and watched a barge and boats go through the locks. We had a great trip and have lots of captioned photos to share with you. Continue reading Around Lake Michigan
We always have one day off during the middle of Campus Crusade’s National Staff Conference. We usually like to get up into the mountains and do some hiking.

Halfway through the summer, Jenny landed two part-time jobs. She sold merchandise at Sea World and also had a desk job at Campus Crusade’s headquarters. One day, as she reported to work at Sea World, she got totally drenched. The wardrobe office gave her a change of uniform and a raincoat. Jenn commented how different her two jobs were. One, where she was on her feet for hours, and the other in an office cubicle. She was glad to finally find work and had fun working in both places. She especially enjoyed working with the ladies in one of Campus … Continue reading Jenny’s Summer Jobs
