I just returned from a week-long camp with Kristen and several girls from the youth group. I had never experienced a summer camp before, and I have to say that the movies have been pretty accurate in their portrayal of summer camps. It was everything I expected and more. There were little junior high boys running around and getting into trouble, there was a lake for swimming, boating and other fun and there was even a dining hall where all...

Well, after a long and somewhat disheartening process, I have a newer car! I still can’t hardly believe it, but I now own a domestic car and it’s nice. It’s a 2001 Ford Taurus SES with around 56,000 miles on it and it runs great. It’s a very good mix between visual style and performance and I’m very happy with it so far.

If you would have asked me Saturday Night, I would have told you a 2004 Honda Civic. If you asked me today what type of car I would like, I would tell you a 2001 Chrysler Sebring Convertible.
