Bair Lake Bible Camp
Lois and I are celebrating twenty-five years of marriage on Wednesday. We are off on a little get-away tomorrow, Lord willing.
We are back from a weekend at Bair Lake Bible Camp. It was a family camp and the group was very open and receptive. We made new friends and enjoyed beautiful weather. I had plenty of time to spend with the family. The camp has a nice pool so the boys have exhausted themselves swimming. Last night they crashed into bed spent and red from the sun, their eyes puffy from chlorine. They went to sleep with contented smiles on their faces. So did I.

CRIM week
Saturday was the CRIM festival of races here in downtown Flint. The CRIM is a festival of foot races and a wheel-chair race held here in Flint for over 25 years.

There were over 7000 in the 10-mile race alone. I was given the honor of praying before the thousands and thousands of spectators and participants gathered in the street at the beginning of the race.

If you had a stack of one hundred dollar bills to give away you would not care if someone did not want to talk to you, you would just go to the next person.
