We had a pretty steamy Summerfest weekend in Arkport. Friday and Saturday were hot and pretty humid. On Sunday morning, just before the community church service in the park, it started raining, becoming a downpour during the service. Fortunately, we were covered. This morning, however, it's cool and clear and beautiful.
I'm sitting in my office with the windows open, enjoying the breeze. It's awesome. Now I need to get ready for the next few weeks. I'll be in Utah the next two Sundays, so I need to make sure things will run with out me!

Mission Trip Coming Fast!
I'll be leaving in less than two weeks to go to the Navajo Nation. I'm part of a large team that will be doing construction on a United Methodist church in Utah (near Four Corners). I'm usually excited by these trips, but this year I'm distracted and unprepared.
Part of the distraction is due to the arrival of our foster child, Alexzander. He's been with us almost a month and just celebrated his six-month half-birthday. He's changing the way we do everything around our house! Kristen was supposed to go on the trip with me, but she's staying home to care for The Boy.
One of the best parts about going on a mission trip is stepping outside your normal life and routine. It's a chance to take a vacation from yourself. I'm hoping it will do me good!
