October Newsletter from the staff at Camp Myrtlewood

Everything at Camp is really great right now—summer is over and winter is coming! This is my favorite time of year—lots of changes and much promise.

BUILDING AND REPAIRS—John Jones

Yesterday was a great day because Sol and Dana Gaab and I got the bulkhead set for the new woodshed. We worked all day to move an 8”x22”x22 feet long creosote timber into place by hand. It might not sound like much of a project but it was. And it was a major step toward building the new woodshed—we’ll start building on Monday and we’re excited because we have stacks and stacks of firewood that need a woodshed.

It's been a long, wet winter and the Spring has at times seemed to be exactly that, a spring—of flowing water. But, where there is abundant water there is bound to be abundant life and that certainly seems to be the case here at Myrtlewood these days. The moles, the grass, the birds, Rider Frey, Sol and Trina, Dana's multiple building projects are all proof that there is plenty going on. Yes, indeed Lord, we're alive and well “right here in River City!”
