After Branson High Football trampled the number 2 team in state Friday night to move to 6-0, we decided it was time to have some fun and celebrate. I joined 5 high school guys on some of Kanakuk's river front property and lit up a bonfire. We set up a half a dozen ENO's, grabbed some smores, and it was game on. It was a special night for sure. What is it about a camp fire that makes life so much better? I'm not sure, but I have a sneaky suspicion that's why we do it so often at Kwest. Year after year our camp fire night is the best thing we do. A little cedar, a box of food, and a short walk to the woods is a recepie that no one can top. We have tons of fun and loads of memories made as the fire seems to draw us together to laugh, share, and at times, just quietly stare at the flames while contemplating life and our Lord. This weekend we all agreed that we need to "do this" every Saturday night (one of the guys even suggested we do it during the week, canoe across the river, and pick up cars to go to school the next morning). After our time by the lake, I left refreshed, ready for another week, and longing for more time with the fellas. It's kinda just like kamp... I miss summer and I miss camp fire night. I miss Kwest.
