Biggest news is that we survived a hurricane! In my ignorance, I didn't know Ireland even got hurricanes. But they do. The worst storm (in Ireland) in the past 15 years happened this past week. Many of us were without electricity, to say the least. Roads were littered with trees and limbs. One limb, in particular, caused us to be in a car accident. Wolf slowed down/stopped when we suddenly realized a limb was in the road. While waiting for oncoming traffic to pass so we could drive around it, a car came slamming into us from behind. All of us were in the van at the time, but none of us were severely hurt- just minor aches and pains. Then, two days later, I was driving to a friend's house, and not seeing the downed power line, I drove right into it. It hit our windshield, and thankfully, just flew up over our car. Thanks to the Lord, we survived it all! The only result of the storm that 'home folks' might see is when Wolf arrives at Cedar Crest Wednesday with a rather 'shaggy' look. Never procrastinate with haircuts- you never know when the power/water may go off.
Camp life has been interesting. A while back, a reality show producer contacted our little camp here. They came for a visit and wanted to know if we'd be willing to be part of their reality show. The series would involve a spoiled, rich girl from England who would be sent to different environments to see how she would fare. They wanted to send her to a Mennonite wilderness camp along with visits to an Eskimo village, a Buddhist Temple, and who knows what else?! We decided not to accept the offer.
Life is never dull in Ireland!
My camera didn't take good pictures, but here are some results of the storm.
