“Do the next thing”

So, Erik graduates from AIT in a few minutes down in VA.  We aren’t there, but wish we were.  Especially since he just told us yesterday that when he went to pick up his travel arrangements, they told him they didn’t buy him a plane ticket.  All last week they told him to check in on Monday………..Now he is told he must do kp for 4 or 5 days until “they can get him a flight.”  Yeah.

So, we don’t know when he’ll be home.  Last night I considered getting into the van and heading down there.  He’d get home quicker.  Yet, because he has no tickets, he also has no orders releasing him.  I’d sure like to have a little chat with them………..

Micah and Adam are currently up at Moose River Outpost.  Our church is having a “church family camp” this coming Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, and our teens are there now planning the events and activities for it.

Anna is hoping to go to the beach today since it promises to be the only fully sunny relatively dry day in a month-long span of summer days.  Seriously.  Rain has graced us every day for weeks……….
