So, pretty much one more day on the porch. I'm so excited to go home and see everyone! At the same time though, it's going to be reallllly weird leaving everybody here. It's really comfortable being on the porch because everybody else here understands the process of the summer and what we've been going through the past few months. It's going to be hard trying to explain this to people back home, though I know I'm really lucky that my close friends and youth group will want to hear all about it. This afternoon I was in an "Adjusting back to life back home" session and got some really good tips from returning staffers or Center Directors. They said that whether I want to or not, for the rest of my life I'll be doing "Initial Home Visits" (IHV's) on every building I step into. This is pretty much the first home visit we'd go on after reviewing applications, and on them we'd decide if the home is worthy or not to work on. I'm sure it'll be a curse after a while but I think it's pretty cool that I even have the knowledge to even perform one of those ya know? Haha I'm sure I can bug my dad and tell him we should be applying for home repair pretty soon..
Anyways, I'm super excited to go to Lake George with the fam. I'm going through some serious Kelly family withdrawl and can't wait to see them all and just relax for the week (with danielle too!). My sleeping pattern is all fotched so that should be interesting, but it'll be nice to get in some R&R.
Here are some pics from Cumberland Gap-- it's where Virginia, Tennessee and Kentucky come together. I stood over the border where they joined! Probably one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.
