Kayaks, and Cockpits, and Skirts, oh my!

Hey all!

Big surprise, I got switched to training this week :) It was pretty incredible since I've never actually had any kind of training in the 2 years I've been here due to crazy circumstances, so when I asked to be moved to training, Luke was totally open :))) Such a good day! I'm really glad to be learning some new things, too.

Like Kayaking! I got to spend the beginning of this week learning to kayak, and then had a crazy freak-me-out-why-don't you experience when I got stuck underwater, unable to exit from my kayak in the middle of the Rock Garden (a small rapid... with lots of bumpy rocks!). Pretty scary, but also an amazing experience in just trusting God and going forward.

I also got to rock climb and go up on the high static and learn how to guide a raft! But kayaking was still my favorite and I really hope that I'll get to do more of that in the future... maybe next year?

The end of my time at Bighorn is drawing to a close so I'm feeling a little down; yet Korea is so close! Only a few days in the kitchen (I love the kitchen!) and then home for a few days and then: KOREA!

Love you all! Tell me how everything is for you!
