This last week was a blast. I wound up borrowing a bass from the church that i'm attending, which allows me not only to play on sundays, but on the wednesday night meetings as well. I hadn't so much as touched a bass since I last played in praise band last August. It all came back rather naturally, and while I've never been incredibly good, what skill I did have came back very quickly. On a related note, the Wednesday night meetings have been a real success. This last week, around 30 people not with campus crusade came, up from ten the week before. I really think God is going to use that ministry to rock Juneau.

We had another camping trip and it was much more successful than the first. We not only got a fire started, we got two started (intentionally, no forest fires here.) We went to cook bacon the next morning only to realize that no one had packed the fire pan. While some elected to cook their share of the bacon when we got back, most of the group wanted to cook at least some of it. If you ever get a chance to cook bacon over an open flame, preferably with a stick, I would highly recommend it.
