My Wife and I Began a New Adventure at Camp Thunder Ridge 2018

We (my wife, Lou, and I) are serving for the summer at the Thunder Ridge Scout Camp located in Southern Utah.  We are having quite the adventures as the Brian Head fire made us evacuate the camp.  And so we have been wandering around ever since.  We are having a grand time in spite of the exciting adventures and challenges.  Read about our adventures on these blog articles:
