"The Elephant Diet" Day 119 Camping, Cabins and Coffee

St. Timothy's cabin where I am staying at Camp Lamar.

So here I am in Lockhaven, PA leading worship all week at Camp Lamar. I have a cabin all to myself this week and to be honest, though I brought lots of work with me to do during the day, I crashed most of the day on Monday. Maybe it was the rain on the roof, or the low clouds keeping the sun away and the temptation to just completely disengage from life, but I found myself sleeping most of the day.

I'm on a marathon of music for 14 gigs this month and I arrived at camp Sunday night a bit weary, missing my husband and wondering how I'm going to make it. Today I decided to go to my favorite coffee shop in LockHaven and get some work done. Staying in my cabin will only make me want to sleep more.

It's been a delightful experience. I chose a round table at the coffee shop and there was a gentleman already seated there. Soon others joined us and I found myself chatting with locals about motorcycles, life and sharing German chocolate fresh from Germany. I came with lots of work to do, but I have thoroughly enjoyed chatting with people at Avenue 209 Coffee Shop.

I have been working on the Christmas project when I can. I listened to my vocals on the way up here on Sunday and though there are a few slight changes I'd like to make, overall, I am happy with the work I did a few weeks ago in TN.

I soon need to head back to camp for lunch. It's been nice to hang out in town and reconnect with the world. It's also been nice to disconnect in my little cabin and rejuvenate in time for the evening sessions at camp.
