Things I learned this past weekend with my high school seniors (04!):

1. I was meant for better things than rubix cubes.  Spatial intelligence will always be a wished for gift.

2. I can't throw a football worth anything.  Catching one also produces a similiar result.

3. I can hit a wiffle ball decently (but not consistently).

4. There are many ways to roast a marshmallow.  But impatience will lead to unwanted carcinogens.

5. A canoe ride is best enjoyed with a good friend (Aileen), a snow-capped mountain (Mt. Shasta), and a trusty oar to row away from watersplashing attackers.

6. Some people think I'm pretty funny and witty (Evangeline!)

7. Large birds fly overhead at night in the form of highschool senior pranksters, leaving cryptic messages on one's car.

8. Tri tip beef looks pinker under the lighting of an RV.  Best to take the meat outside for a more well done appeal.

9.  Jeans can be rolled-up as makeshift pockets, suitable for keys and snacks.

10. There's nothing sweeter than enjoying God's presence in nature.  Nothing.
