Fun With The Youth

Proof that the rainy season is really here came in the form of some minor highway flooding. On the way back from a quick trip to Belize on the James Bus Line to deliver a couple of our children to summer camp we came to an unscheduled stop on the way into Mango Creek. Ours was the low-lying express bus and the driver didn’t want to take it across the flood so all those going to Mango Creek got out and transferred to a regular Blue Bird school bus We backed about ½ mile down the road, turned around and went our way, only to be stopped again by a second flood. This time the rest of us transferred to the higher-riding bus, eased our way through the flood and on to PG.

This sort of thing is fairly common in the rainy season and has some advantages over being stranded for two days in a snowstorm, which has happened to me back home (actually in New York State).

We paid for five children to go to camp but only three actually made it. The camp will certainly appreciate the extra funds.

The day before at our Youth Meeting we had taken a few pictures and the kids said I could post the silly picture as long as I posted the "good" one (I think).
