Cimarroncito, in the back country


Back country etiquette has a crew waiting to be invited onto the porch. They always are, and then are offered something to drink, like Gatorade or water. This crew is finding out all the site has to offer, including rock climbing (seriously), and in the event of rain, indoor rock climbing walls. When we went back in the evening to do a worship service, it was in the middle of a pouring down rain. The Protestant chapel has outdoor seating, so the staff was gracious to let us use the rock climbing indoor site - and over two dozen showed up. The staff at this camp is quite wonderful, and hosted us for a really great meal, including some back country cheesecake - you won't find any better! As crews are heading for sleeping bags, they have endured two pretty serious pour downs. One's prayers begin to include things like dry clothes, fresh (!) socks, and a leakless tent - all true gifts on days like this.
