It’s a small world…well, not really

by Emily on August 25, 2006

Hey everybody, while I was at Windy Gap camp (for school), I talked to my biology teacher, Mr. Hall. (Sorry, I don’t know his first name.) Scince he said in class on Monday that he just graduated a couple of years ago from Covenant College, I asked him about it, and he said that he was good friends with Micah and Seth! Wow! Things like that maze me.

Windy gap was fun! There was a waterslide into the lake, along zipline into the lake, a pool with a diving board, sandy vollyball courts, “The Blob” (You jump off a platform onto this big, long, blow-up thing in the lake and catapolt the person, on the other end, into the water. Then you crawl to the other end and get catapolted.), a two-seater, harnessed swing that pulls you up and back about 50 feet and drops you so that you are swinging really high, horseback riding, a ropes course, and an ice cream shop! That was a long sentence if I ever saw one! But anyway, it was a lot of fun, and I made some new friends!

Oh, Emily, I am so glad!!!!!!! It is a small world, oh my goodness! Is his name Nathan Hall? Because we know him and his wife, we went to his wedding actually, and we know all of his family and I have gone on missions trips with his older sister, and I was in youth group with his brother, and wow! The Lord works in such mysterious ways! Amen!
I am so glad you made friends!

Wow! Nathan Hall did just go to Charlotte to teach at a school there. I was wondering if it might be the same school that you would end up attending. He is a very fun person. He can juggle and ride the unicycle and do other cool tricks.

The retreat sounded like loads of fun, especially the “Blob”. I chuckled as I imagined you and James flying from the Blob into the air. I am so glad for you all!

Yeah, Mr. Hall (I guess Nathan) juggled in class. Not just normal juggling, but he did cool tricks with it!
