Friends--
This post is to let you know about our communications capabilities at our Cornerstone campsite. We have no Internet access at the campsite; we will update this blog every day or two, when we come into the town of Ramona for supplies.
I will try to include a few photos in this blog, but you can see all of our photos (again updated when I can get to town) at the following site: www.kodakgallery.com/bbruneau. Eventually, I may be able to add captions to all of the photos, but for now I want you to be able to share our travels as we are experiencing them.
Cell phone access is difficult at best. Our campsite is at an elevation of about 1500 feet, surrounded by rocky hills. If you are unable to reach your traveler or your calls are cut off, please do not worry about them; it probably just means that the signal has faded for some reason.
Just a quick update: after a beastly hot Tuesday, the temp is a little more manageble today (meaning it's under 100 degrees). We've all learned to pace ourselves, take frequent breaks, and drink lots of water. The "bruise count" is well below previous Jesus Trips... just one bruise where someone tried to pound a tent stake with a rock and hit a fingernail instead. The group has met the six horses that Cornerstone uses for their therapeutic riding program, and a few students are very eager to help with feeding and watering the horses, cleaning out their stalls, and spraying them to keep the flies away. Others have become experts in picking rocks in the arena and digging mustard weed out from the arena area.
Please feel free to leave comments for the group on this blog; I'll relay them to the kids at our evening devotion and reflection sessions.
Pastor Barbara
