The Poconos

Lauren and Julia at Band Camp

Child's Park

Julia is participating in marching band this year and they spent last weekend up in the Poconos at band camp. We headed up Sunday morning to the camp so she could go to church with us at a nearby ward. While we were up there, we had a picnic at Child's Park. (Child's park was a park that my mom visited several times as a child and has often wanted to visit.) Chris and Christie also came up to enjoy the day with us since neither had been to this area of PA. A girl from our ward, Lauren, spent the day with us, since she was also at the camp.

The trip home wasn't so pleasant as we nearly got hit head on when a car had a blow out on the opposite side of the highway and went out of control, saw a motorcyclist lifeflighted as we sat on the shutdown highway, and saw another fender bender close to home. I decided after that we should probably just stick around home the last week of the summer :).
