2014 MTrip: DAY 1 - by Jackson & Dave



Sunday – Day 1 (Part 1 by Jackson)
Yesterday started off a little rocky, one kid slept through their alarm and another had a car accident on the way to Cana.  But after the little confusion the trip got underway with three different groups all having a game of tag trying to speed up and catch each other, we had a little rain to started but the rest was muggy but clear. Each bus had their own activities like movies or game but everyone had the great pleasure to enjoy Nathans homemade mix tapes with every genre in the world, although it was a little bit of a moshposh of genres.  I think everyone had a  good but long trip down and is excited to continue getting closer to the lord and help others find him too.

Sunday  - Day 1 (Part 2 by Dave)
As we were about to turn onto the dirt road to the camp, we decided to go about 20 feet further (on accident) so we could enter North Carolina. We can check that state off the list, too. After following the various confusing signage, we made it to the camp. As usual, we were late. We had yet to eat so we decided so head down to Brothers Copper Kettle Oven, where we would have some sort of unknown food. It was closed, so we instead went to Hardees. It was definitely a downgrade. After eating and refilling the gas guzzler called the POG van, we headed back to the camp site for chapel. We were late again. After sneaking in through the back, we sat through a pretty decent service, saw some rules videos, and set the overall tone for the camp. It’s looking like it’ll be a good week.
