DRENCHED! .... DRYING OUT WITH FRIENDS =)


We got hit with rain on the last day of camp which means we had to break camp while the tents were still wet. Over the past 2 days we've been looking for breaks in the rain so that we could set things out to dry.

On Thursday Carson & I got just enough sunshine to lay all the rainflies out to dry on the asphalt parking lot of our gear cache. Then the rain started again.

We drove to Easley, SC to visit our friends Jason & Heather, and they graciously opened their home up as a large dryer for our tents & hammocks. They let us use a blower, heater, fan, hairdryer, 2 ladders, their vehicle, their garage, and their driveway to help dry it all out.

With another break in the rain we were able to knock it all out in about 4 or 5 hours.

Jason & Heather's home looked like Tent City LOL! We were blessed to get to spend some quality time with them at their new house.

We stayed the night at their house on Thursday night and dried everything out all day Friday before boarding our cheap Allegiant flights at 11pm to head home for a few weeks before our next set of Adventure Trips.

It's actually cheaper for us to fly back than it is to drive back or stay up there. It also allows me to get a lot of office work (& hopefully home renovations) done between events.

We are so thankful for and blessed to have amazing friends like Jason & Heather who help enable us & GTD to do what we do! We can't thank them enough!
