This week is decking. We have five decks that we have scheduled for this week. In addition to all of the decks weve got for this week, we also have alot of work that needs to be completed in order for everything to be ready for campers. This includes everything from making videos, to organizing more trailers, to all kinds of other stuff. its been a pretty busy week. weve got some pretty funny videos planned for this summer. if ryan is reading this, unless you want to ruin the surprise of the videos scroll down a bit. if not you can still read, just dont tell anyone about it. two of the videos are spoofs from old saturday night live skits. the first is called land whale. the old snl skit is actually called land shark. Its about a shark that lives on land and goes door to door, getting people to answer the door, and then eating them. its a pretty funny sketch, especially when you can hear the 'land shark' talking and luring people to the door. the second one is called mr jonah. the original sketch is about a play dough man named mr bill and he is destroyed every video by his arch nemesis sluggo. the only difference in our skit is we changed the name to mr jonah in order keep with the theme of the summer. another video is a countdown where all of the guys sing bohemian raphsody together in a car. im really looking forward to seeing these videos edited. they should be funny
back to the decks... weve had 5 decks to do this week. sunday night we were split up into three different crews, we each had a deck to do. we were given monday and tuesday to finish them, which isnt too much to expect. i had a really good crew. warren, the worship leader was our crew leader, and erica. everyone had a 12x10 foot deck to do. the deck crew i was on had a few extra requirments to meet because of who was funding the project. we had to meed KHC code in addition to state code, while everyone else only had to meet state codes. We had several extra steps we had to do, including two posts, lag bolting the deck to the house, putting extra supports under the deck, as well as digging out a hole for cement to be poured to secure the steps. some of these make a little sense, but others, like the cement, are just pointless. oh well, thats just how it works i guess. our grouped worked really well together, and we kept up the pace with everyone even with the extra stuff to do.. we still have two decks to do tomorrow, which well split into crews to finish as well.
thursday were going to run through all of our services to make sure everything meshes well together. ive got a feeling this is going to be a long day, but atleast it wont be too strenuous.
i have discovered two things thus far that are in kentucky. the first, being ski. ski is a sprite like soft drink with alot more flavor. its quite delicious, now it is in no way, shape or form im comparison with the divine-like sundrop, but it rather tasty. the second thing i have discovered, i love oh so much. two words: Summer Snow. oh if only words could describe summer snow. its kinda like a snow cone, but oh so much better. it will literally blow your mind. they have 60 flavors, some including : rug rats, frog in a blender, ken and barbie, the incredible hulk, spider man, rock and roll, and oh so many others. if any of you are ever in campbellsville, you MUST stop by summer snow, your life will be changed forever.
one more thing, the new mountain dew soft drinks arent all youd expect. looking at the packages, youd think theyd be the most delicious drink youd ever had, but its not the case. their not bad, but they arent that good either. just thought id throw that little bit of info yalls way.
im really looking forward to campers coming on sunday. its gonna get hecktic and im hardly going to have time to breathe, but it should be alot of fun.
5 days till campers come
