Another busy weekend...

On Wednesday we cleaned and worked on program stuff.

On Thursday we finally had a day off! After sleeping in I went to Lancaster with Taco to play disc golf. We also went to Friendly's for lunch and ice cream and to the batting cages! It was a good day with a great friend!

On Friday Beth and I cleaned out the program shed at Fort Roller, then we helped with dinner! We had a group of girl scouts in for a retreat that Dess was hosting, a group of about 70 RVR alumni that were in for a reunion and two Tnt ers that were in to help. So I helped in the kitchen and the snack shop Friday night.

Early Saturday morning I was in the kitchen to help set up a small breakfast snack in the wagon wheel for the early- risers in the alumni group, and to get breakfast ready for the girl scouts. Then we played the divide and conquer game. Some workers stayed in the kitchen to serve breakfast to the girl scouts and some of us, me included, dressed up in our cowboy/cowgirl gear and went up the hill to Chuck wagon to serve breakfast the the alumni group like they did in the olden days. It was so much fun. We spent the morning cooking away over an open fire and then the alumni showed up on horse back or in the hay wagon looking cute all decked out in their cowboy gear. We served them cowboy coffee, scrambled or fried eggs, bacon, potatoes and cowboy doughnuts! It was all soo good! Then some people shared about that the Ranch meant to them and what roll it had played in their lives. It was really great to see that the Ranch had made such lasting impressions. It was also great to meet some of the people who had actually built the ranch! When breakfast was over we loaded everything up and took it down the hill to the kitchen where they were getting lunch ready! We were all working hard to get things cleaned up and lunch out for the girl scouts at 12 and the work crew that was in at 12:30, when Tina asked if we could open the store for the alumni. We were supposed to open it at 1 for the girl scouts so Doug sent me over there early for the alumni. So I ran the store for both groups and then got back to the kitchen in time to help with the clean up efforts! By the time everything was finished it was 2:30! I worked on program stuff the rest of the afternoon and then helped with dinner!

On Sunday I watched the Zig kids for about 30 min. and then helped with breakfast clean up. We went to church and then to the Dutch because Chris Fournier was visiting! After lunch Dess and I watch survivor on the computer while I kept checking the updates of the race. We went to Brad's to watch the last 50 laps! What a race! Then I had a lazy Sunday evening!
