at the bean!

Hello to all of my beautiful friends out there in this world!
I am here again today at "the Bean" my new favorite coffee house hang out!
I took a picture of the front of it so you could see what it looks like!
maybe someday I will take a picture of Kathy the owner ... she is a pretty fun lady!

anyway here it is:


It is Tuesday and is one of my off days ... I had to run into Huntsville today to square up with the ford dealership for the blue truck that I am supposed to be using for hauling canoes around - instead of my durango! anyway I also found a coin laundry shop today and did my laundry ... its been awhile since having to do my laundry in a laundromat ... anyway I survived and now I have more clean clothes! yeah for me!
I have just finished up catching up on all of my email correspondence so that is good! and thought I would post a short update to you all!
I would love feed back as it gets a little lonely here from time to time with not a lot to do and being by myself! so I would love to hear from all of you!

ok well have a super week! may the Lord bless you in all your endevours!
Thanks for all your prayers!

Pics of my new home!!

Hello to all my friends! Well my first full week is almost over and it has been rather enjoyable up here in North Country! I went for a paddle today up and down the Magatawan river which was very nice! I got to see a beaver, a deer and several loons! and the scenery was pristine!! right now I am at my local Huntsville hang out ... "The Bean" coffee shop! its the only place that I have found to have wireless at this point! but there is still a lot of exploring yet to do!


So I have to pick up a group of 21 from Faith Baptist Church of Creston Ia today so there will be some familiar faces!

The Base Camp Operations Center:




The Beach of Himbury Lake which is a short walk from my Camper!




This is my camper -- outside view:







Camper inside view:





My new Washroom! :)




Well I am going to leave you for now! but here are a few pictures of my camper and the area! enjoy! drue

Canadian Adventure part 1

So I just finished my first weekend running the base camp for Pilgrimage up in the Algonquin of northern Ontario Canada!
This first weekend I had Ben & Kadeen Whilhite (Pilgrimage owner) and Tim Morse here with me to get everything set up and going! Between the 3 of us we put 60 people on the water Sunday morning! Most will be in the woods for a week and then I will go pick them up at the access point and bring them back to camp on firday!
So far it has been pretty fun! Today is monday June 18 and I am hanging out in a coffee shop (imagine that) were they have wireless! so I can send you my updates!
This morning we had some thunderstorms so that has been kinda fun and interesting morning!

Well that is my up date for now! I will try and write more later and as interesting things out here in the wild happen! :)
