One of our favorite jobs to do on camp is to clear brush.
I think it's our favorite because we can all participate and do it together. Dan has the monopoly on the chainsaw work and that's fine with us. The boys are great at stacking firewood and hauling off the brush to the burn pile.
Even Morgan has learned to throw firewood into the back of the pickup.
One of our problems on camp right now is the lack of sunlight. We get plenty of rain for which we are thankful for because it keeps everything green. But when the sun does shine, vegetation is so dense that the sunlight doesn't reach the ground. Slowly but surely we have picked areas on camp that need cleared so that we can grow grass and so that other trees which are more picturesque can thrive. People also enjoy the sunshine during the summer because the shade is often very cool.
Work is never ending here on camp, but every little bit counts.
We hope to see volunteers from local churches come to camp and help with this type of work in the near future.
Dan has given the challenge many times and we are praying that the churches see the need and are willing to participate. Would you pray with us?
