Its been a long time

We have not done any roaming in what feels like forever, for us anyways. I mentioned in our last post that we would be staying in Houston for the summer. Well, things have changed and we are leaving for camp tomorrow morning! Joe is the Baseball Director and I will be working in the office at Brookwood Camp in New York. We will be there for about 6 weeks or so which is a little less than we had originally planned. All of the other staff arrived on Friday of last week for orientation. Joe needed to finish up some things around here so we will be driving up over the next 2 days to arrive just a couple of days before the campers. This is a sleep-away sports camp for kids much like the one that Joe worked at for 3 summers before in Massachusetts. We will return to Houston the first week of August for Joe's new teacher orientation which begins on August 6. Anyway, we are packing last minute things and trying to get our new house a little more settled before we head out in the morning but we wanted to make sure that we let everyone know about this change of plans. We are very much looking forward to some cooler temperatures. We saw that the weather up there calls for highs in the mid-80s which sounds like a dream to us at this point. It has been very hot for moving and watching/coaching baseball the last few weeks so we welcome the change. It seems strange to pack jeans and jackets when we wouldn't dream of putting those things on here but we are also ready for less bugs. I never knew that there were so many bugs and other creepy critters in this world until I moved to Texas so it will be freeing to be able to take a walk at night without being attacked by many flying things and coming in with several new bites. Well, we will try to post some pictures and updates once we get settled in at camp. Thanks for the prayers. Keep them coming!
