Encampment

Hey all sry it has been so long. It is hard to find time to update anymore my life is going wacky. As you can tell by the title this weekend was encampment. It went really well except for a few problems with people on staff using toliet paper to decorate each others room. But that is a totaly different story. Butter's (aka Ben Crayner) and Stephen picked me up at about 4:00. After they figured out Gray road was closed for construction. So once we got all of my junk into his tiny neon which actually wasn't all that tiny. It took about a half'n'hour to load everything and get on the road and i think i brought everything you could think of except for my sleeping bag. I wasn't to happy about that. But once we got everyone checked in it went pretty smoothly we all got a little rest time before the staff meeting. Once cracker barrel had ended I realized butters had to run to kinkos to make copies and that all my clothes and pillow were in his car. He left at 6:30 and didn't get back till 10:30 it was kind of funny though because he got lost and had no idea were 96th street was. Then me and him headed over to the cabins. I got to see someone i haven't seen in many many years. Mike stouder, a guy from my troop who kind of dropped out of it, and his g/f. A few other k-staffers as well. I finnaly crawled into the cabin about 2:30. Then I awoke to screaming people in the middle apartment of the cabin. Then i headed over to the dinning hall for breakfast. Saturday ran well Rachel showed up and helped out in the health lodge. She was the only explorer to show up i think this weekend. Then that afternoon i helped my crew finish building the campfire. Once that was done i then had to go into campfire mode and start planning the evening program. It ran well unfortantly K doesn't have a sound shed so we had to use my stereo instead of a amplifier. The fire went up really well, never under estimate the campfires me and my crew of workers can build. It unfortuantly strated to scare the MC because of its size and when it colapsed on of the typee logs rolled out and i got told i had to go either soak it with water or be sued for burning down camp k. once the campfire had ended and all had settled down i finnaly wandered back over to the cabins to chat with some people before bed. I went to bed at about 2:30 again. I got up at 8:00 because even though me and carney were sleeping on the floor of the commens room people didn't wake us up as they walked through. So once i finnaly rolled out of k with ben it was about 12:30 and we stopped at Wendy's for lunch and as we left the Noblesville motorcycle gang rolled in so we floored out of there. i got home at about 1:30 and got everything put away. Today was ok I had to have surgery on my big toe so now i am in an emense amount of pain. Then I had to go replace a car battery in one of our cars. Then I check the blog and find some discouraging things. All I have to say is that if you have something that you don't like about me tell me who you are and say to my face. That way i can try and fix the problem. People don't enjoy getting these kinds of anynomous things when you won't tell them who you are. Ok i will step down from my soapbox know. Thanks to all those who made me feel better today and made it so that my day wasn't a complete tragdy. I need to go finish some homework talk to you later.
