Dad's Visit to Texas

Playing Host

My Dad came to visit the weekend before Thanksgiving. I was excited to have a visitor and see some family. He got in late Friday night and Josh and I picked him up from the airport. Josh played a game called "is that Brian Hill". It was funny and passed the time.

The next morning my Dad got a taste of dining hall/southern food with biscuits and gravy. We made our way to Oklahoma. I had decided to try to go to Lake Texoma on the border of SUPRISE, Texas and Oklahoma. We walked around the lake for an hour or so talking and catching up. We had lunch, went and saw Skyfall then went grocery shopping. He took Josh and I out for an amazing steak dinner. It was the best food I'd had since I got here.

On Sunday we went to church and then I took him on a Polaris ride around camp along with curriculum lecture and all. I think he enjoyed seeing what I do. We even shot arrows (I kicked his butt ;). He stayed in the infirmary. It was really funny because the first night he was here he kept saying that 'this is the way every horror movie starts. You come to a camp, late at night and stay in a place with a lot of doors and few lights." Josh and I had a good laugh about it, he told me every morning that he'd made it out and that the werewolves didn't get him. On Sunday night we had lasagna dinner, watched 'Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter', ate Blue Bell Ice Cream and played dominoes and most importantly, we introduced him to 'adult Trouble'.

I got a note from his saying how much he enjoyed the visit, and so did I!
