cabin again

the annual tradition of going to the cabin continues.  it was a little smaller group than usual, with this being our first trip up without our beloved jeffry lee.  unfortunately jon was not able to come either, but at least we had dusty, aaron, and adam!
we met up at Aarons,  a little earlier than years past, that way we got a some more time up there.  we stopped for lunch in big rapids and then headed all the way up.  it took some getting used to not having jeffry lee there, he was always the one who was extra loud and excitable- so the rest of us had to make up for it!  dusty took over the fire starting duties, and by 1pm we were all cozy and ready for some fun.  the day brought a lot of silliness, great stories, crazy games, and some really great conversations.  after a visit to sporties for dinner, the party continued well into the wee hours of the night.  the best part of these trips is the renewing of friendships through the deeper discussions that happen at the end of the night.  there was a lot of talking about life, relationships, and deeper purpose.
this was our 18th year of the cabin tradition, and it keeps getting better!
