Some Pics of travel

More images to come soon. We are a LOT more busy than last year...

Hill Comorah Pageant

IT IS SOO RAINY HERE! I thought i might make that clear before you read on. The past few days have been, well a blur. There were times we were just sitting in the motor home, (we as in me Cameron and Wes. Jacob and Ethan have a quit large group of friends most of them girls. and my mom and dad were always shopping.) But there were times we were doing something, if you don't count getting rained on. We have gone up the hill a few times. it is a bight steeper than i remember. My mom took Cameron up the hill early this morning. To his pleasure he found fresh road kill. It was a chipmunk. I can't remember the exact way he explained it, thank goodness , but he did say that the guts were squished out and the intestines looked like worms. Another time we went up the hill was to work off the calories of chill and grill. Which we went to for dinner. I forgot to take my camera but we will be going back so no worries. I got a 1/2 pound burger also a small cookies and cream ice cream. Which I ate like half of. The small is really large. Ethan got a small ice cream cone and it had four scoops of ice cream stacked on top of each other and the ice cream went all the way to the bottom of the cone. Before this some of us went to the printing press because Cameron has never been threw it. it was not crowded at all. It is was a pretty good tour. But i forgot my camera. Here are some pictures of the past days...........

We had to put up a tarp to keep the tents dry.

This is what is looks like from the outside.

Looks like we weren't the only ones.

This is the motor home the fist day we were here.

If you look close you can see cam walking in the
rain with his unclosable duck taped umbrella.

Here we are at the cast team tents. Cam is
looking at some dead bugs.

This is one side of the hill.

We are still trying to making are way to the top
of the hill.

Finally we made it.

We're Here!

Ok, so I was wrong. We landed in Rochester about 11 and then crashed at somebody's house. Supposedly we know them, but I didn't have any clue who they were. The trip was pretty boring, except for the part where we ran pretty much the whole length of the Detroit McNamara airport to get some food from Fuddruckers. Thankfully our plane was late, because we got back just as they were boarding. That airport is sort of an H with the middle part being an underground tunnel, and said tunnel has some really cool lights in it. I took a small video of it, which I will post when I find the cord for my camera. We finally got to the hill about 10 AM on Wednesday, where we promptly changed into our church clothes so we could go do Baptisms for the Dead at the Palmyra temple. That itself was interesting, as Jacob got confirmed for one Charlie Brown and dad met some people that he home taught as a teenager and hadn't seen in 20 years. We made it back in camp and started gettin out the pallets to put our tents on (because the ground is wet so much). Sure enough, it started to rain. Then basically half my cast team from last year showed up and we hung out for the rest of the day. There was a potluck dinner, but it was a little weak because there weren't that many families involved. Thats about it for my story, so I'm going to set it up so other people can post. and Again, I'm sorry there aren't any pictures yet.

Packing

Aagh!!! Things are crazy right now. I shouldn't even be wasting time to do this but I really wanted to get it set up. So to intro, we are the Christensen's and this is a blog of our adventures this summer. We're starting off by flying to NY today to be in the Hill Cumorah Pageant. That will probably be most of what ends up on the blog. We are trying to get everything together right now, and its not going great. maybe some pictures will show up, but I doubt it right now. We'll be stopping in Detroit for an hour and then continuing on to Rochester. We'll finally make it to the campsite about 11:00 PM. Hope that you enjoy the blog as much/more than we enjoy the stuff we blog about!
