the end is come and gone and near all at once

so camps are over, the normal ordinary summer camps that is, yesterday we had our staff retreat, which was amazing amounts of fun- we hit up jump sky high, an place the trampolines and foam pits and dodge ball trampoline courts- well i'm sure you get the point, it was alot of fun, we were all doing flips into the foam pit. then after a lovely picnic lunch at someones beautiful house where they had 10 kittens that everyone was running around after we hit a wings and waves, and indoor water park. it was pretty fun, the hot tub was amazing, and the wave pool and one or two of the slides was pretty fun so we were there for a few hours before all heading to taco bell for dinner where half the staff have no left us to do other things for the rest of the summer. :( was so sad to say goodbye to some of them not knowing when i am going to see them again! fortunately most go to walla walla where i am planning on visiting as part of my travels. so now we are having our day off, me Bee, Alyssa and Jason are hitting up Eugene for some chill time at Bee's house and shopping, its nice to go somewhere different other than Bend, even though i do love Sisters and Bend alot. so tomorrow we start bonus weeks, so 3 more weeks left of camp. there are quite a few people staying for the first week but then i think quite alot more people are leaving. :( week three we only have 4 people in the corral which is going to be interesting with 21 horses to look after. fortunately 3 of us are old hands and Jason who is joining us knows what he is doing, but after having 8 people to look after the 21 horses its going to be quite different!

i have started planning my trip for the rest of the time that i am allowed to stay in the states, which is pretty exciting!!! then off to see Larissa in England. its going to be very hard to leave here though, i have made so many amazing friends here again.

so heres to the last 7 weeks that i have in the States- how time flies!
