More Colorado Adventures!

So, I've now been in Colorado for almost a month. I've been rock climbing twice, bouldering once (low rock climbing without the ropes), backpacking, hiking, golfing, saw a baseball game (minor league team), played ultimate and volleyball, wandered around downtown Denver and Boulder. I've seen two kitties (daily), herds of elk, a goat, some marmots, and a few dogs (owned by the eMi staff). Overall a very good month. I've also had a number of bible studies, prayer times, worship sessions, and deep conversations with my fellow interns. I've baked peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, a broccoli cheddar bacon quiche, chocolate chip banana bread. I've had Korean food twice with the our two lovely Korean interns.. I learned to say thank you in Korean and then forgot it. I got my bass and will hopefully purchase an amp this evening. I decorated my cubicle and used up my Starbucks cards. I hope everyone reading this is as happy and contented as I am. Here is a picture of all the interns from orientation right after we went rock climbing!Here's one of us girls bouldering(that's Jane about my head):


Not to mention I am leaving for Uganda in A WEEK AND A HALF!!! It's starting to hit me how soon that is. I'm getting my shots today.... scary. Although the diseases they prevent are decidedly more scary.

Heather! It sounds like you're having an incredible time! You got a bass! Sweet! I'm excited to hear you play! And I am super thrilled to hear about your experience in Uganda. One week left here in the states. Have a blast when you're over there, and keep us posted. Love you, friend!

Awww, my dear. I went swing dancing tonight at Memories, and definitely missed you. But oh, what adventures were had! Anyway, when the "Hi-dee-hi-dee-hi-dee-hi, ho-dee-ho-dee-ho-dee-ho" song came on, I missed you very much and I thought you should know.
Call me sometime when you get a chance, may your life be changed by Uganda, and may God continue to bless and grow you as it looks like he's been doing!
