Youth Outing

Back
 

Jim Bentley arranged everything and told us to throw our teens in a van and drive them down to a friends house in Tennessee.

Jimmy and Jerry had quads down there waiting for us!

Corrine and Heidi lounging before the trek.
Arianne had to powder her nose for those mosquitoes.
Getting ready to move out.
Our first water crossing!
Isn't it absolutely beautiful!
Isaac wants one of these for his birthday!
Heidi looks pretty comfy while Cadi drives!
A rope hanging near the water provided a great place to take a break!
Jerry wanted to make sure the rope was safe ... and there is really only one way to test it!!
Even though the water was VERY cold, there were several takers!
Kendra looks like she is walking on water!
Gravity ... not just a good idea, it's the law!
All I could get of Corrine was a splash!
Jerry kept the rope up there where everybody could reach it ...
Standing in the cool water could drop your body temperature about 10 degrees!!
The group from the church - Corrine, Isaac, Jimmy, Sharon, Doug, Heidi, Cadi, Ari.
Here is everybody that went out except Jimmy - Jeremy, Karen, Corrine, Isaac, Jerry, Heidi, Sharon, Doug, Cadi, Ari, Kendra.
At one of our stops ... Isaac had to visit the little boys room.
This little hole leads down to a cave ... it felt like it was pumping out AC!
They finally had to drag me away from it kicking and screaming ...
7 Quads ... all in a row!
Jeremy, Isaac, Jerry and Karen, Jimmy and Corrine, Heidi and Cadi, Kendra and Ari, Doug and Sharon!
We finally headed back so we could go to Pizza Hut to eat lunch!
This is a view from an overlook - right before we took this picture there were several squeals at the spotting of a black snake right on this rock!
After lunch we decided to go UP a mountain. There was no trail, but hey who cares - put these things in first gear and they can climb a tree!
The heat was too much for us so we headed back down to the river trail - this was a great swimming hole!
Taking a break in the middle of the river ...
Another water crossing - heading back home.

When we got back to Jerry's house we headed to the hotel for showers and to cool down a bit. Then we went back to Jerry's house for a great cookout and some fireworks!

Jerry and Karen really took great care of us and made us feel so welcome.
Thank you guys!!

The next day (Sunday) we attended Amazing Grace Baptist Church - the message was the faithfulness of Christ ...
