| Wow...camp.
I can't even do justice to anything in this entry. But just know I am doing beyond great and am absolutely in love with what I am doing and the team I am with. This staff makes me wanna be a better person.
On top of all that God-given awesomeness I've gotten to see almost the entire '05 East Coast staff team with various members visiting us at camps all along the way, including:
- Andrew Morton
- Scott Spilker
- Corrie Reinhardt (Johnson)
- Angie Mooney
- Jerry Evans
- Adam Babrick
Crazy I know. I'm way exhausted but mainly just from the super intense game of water polo we played at the hotel tonight in Indianpolis. God is blessing me daily with strength and encouragement.
I miss you guys lots and wanna know what's happening back on the home front. Call or e-mail.
4 weeks down. 5 to go.

| One of the great but often unmentioned causes of both happiness and misery is the quality of our environment: the kinds of walls, chairs, buildings and streets that surround us. And yet a concern for architecture and design is too often described as frivolous, even self-indulgent. Where we are heavily influences who we can be, it is architecture's task to stand as an eloquent reminder of out full potential.
We owe it to the fields that our buildings will not be the inferiors of the virgin land they have replaced.
[In reference to all antagonists of the significance of architecture
and design] - professions of detachment that stem not so much from an
insensitivity to beauty as from a desire to deflect the sadness we
would face if we left ourselves open to all of beauty's absences.
Belief in the significance of architecture is premised on the notion that we are, for better or for worse, different people in different places - and on the conviction that it is architecture's task to render vivid to us who we might ideally be.
- from The Architecture of Happiness by Alain de Botton
