Wow! What a deep freeze. We have been locked down the past few days. No school. No traction. No more gigantic wood pile. The fires are burning and so are the candles in many homes near Kanakuk central. After three days now of no school and some no electricity, we were ready for change.
Guess what? We got it.
Looking out my window the sun is shining, the ice is melting, and the cedar trees are beginning to spring back up into formation as the heavy frozen rain is rapidly disappearing.
And none too soon, I might add. Kamp is just around the bend.
The past few days did help bring some perspective. No electricity meant no heat (we burned lots of wood in the fireplace), no water (we skipped showers and laundry for a while), and no lights (playing board games late into the night via some candles is absolutely the best).
It kind of reminded me of what we do on Rainy days at kamp. You know the drill. We throw out the regular schedule and get the creative juices flowing for some real kamp fun. Ahhh, I can hardly wait for June. Get ready special programs. It's supposed to be a wet summer. :)
