Though my thoughts aren't exactly shared by the whole staff, I thought this week went by really fast. I think a big part was how we spent a few days doing new jobs (like making soup mix) available that they usually don't have so late into the summer.
What was really cool was how our group not only set a new record for processing bins of fruit, we also were able to package over 600,000 8oz servings of soup mix.
Last night we split into 3 groups and went on a prayer walk around the Gleanings campus. It was a neat way to close the week.
If you haven't noticed we've been twittering our trip as well. I probably should have explained that earlier but better late then never, right?
If you're curious what "Twitter" is, it's essentially mini blogging. Why people use Twitter over things like this blog is because it can easily be updated by a phone via text message which makes it much easier and quicker to post. The only limitation is that each post is limited to 160 characters so messages need to be concise.
If you want to read them, it's anchored on the top right of our web page www.hccfuel.com. They can also be texted straight to your phone if you want (ask a teenager how).
You'll also notice that there are often links posted to them as well. The ones from yfrog.com are links to photos of students and the links from bit.ly will bring up a map with our current location. (This could prove useful come Monday.)
*for some reason I can't edit the and add this to the bottom of the page. But I was just going to say that we probably won't have much in the way of cell service at our campsite but we will post as soon as we do (which might be Monday). Though in lew of cell service I anticipate some awesome stars the next two nights!
Anyhoo, we're eating dinner in Yreka right now, and I'm not so sure how well our cell phone reception will be at he camp site.
