Day 1

Well we left. Yesterday morning we finally got on the road to begin our trip to Denver. A lot of us were pretty tired out from Summer Adventure Week at our church, but I think everyone is very excited to be finally going.

Robbie, James and I got stuck in the back of the Van but it was alright. Jame's mother was kind enough to buy us a six pound bag of gummy bears, of which about two pounds are in my stomach right now.

In the van we all told our life stories, (breifly of course) and James's can be summed up pretty easily, and I quote, "My parents say I'm friendly, I don't like to talk very much." Hilarious.

We drove to Casper Wyomming and arrived at about nine thirty. We're staying at a community center owned by a church, I can't remember what it's called. We played some basketball last night in the gym to unwind from the Van trip then the guys went out to get some gas for the Van and we realized that after 11:00 virtually all of Casper shuts down, which was a problem.

Robbie, James and I got up early to run this morning, and I think all of Casper is uphill, seriously. We eventually ran onto a cart path on a golf course which was fun, but by the time we made it back to camp we were all pretty tired.

Time to go eak breakfast, going to cover all of yesterdays junk food with donuts and cereal to try and cleanse my system. Another day of driving, only about five hours though, and we'll be in Denver. Please pray for sanity in the van, and safety on the road.

P.S. Robbie wants to know if there are any side effects to eating an entire bag of trail mix. Quote "I just love this stuff!"
