Adventures in the Rain

Yesterday after church it was pouring down rain and so most of the roommates decided to just stay in and relax all day. But not me and alex! We asked to borrow "Rusty"( this beat-up old rusty little pickup truck) and the two of us ventured out into the pouring rain to drive out to the Grotto. The Grotto is this cool little underground cave/swimming hole area, and you have to hike down some pretty steep stairs to get there. The church people took Cyndi, Sharla, Holly and I out there our first weekend, but Alex was sick and so she missed out. So yesterday I took her there for her first time. We had so much fun because after that we found this other really cool cave(not in the water) but we didn't hike in because it went down about a hundred feet and we were alone and we didn't have flashlights. But we did use Alex's camera flash to see how deep it went. So instead we climbed up the jungles and rocks around it. There were so many bugs and worms and we were soaked and muddy, but we had such a great time! Then we came home and took hot showers (which our tap water is half salt water) and then we got in bed and watched a movie, Fireproof, which is a really good movie actually. At first you will think its dumb because it has HORRIBLE acting, but it has really good messages. So that pretty much sums up our weekend, today we're going out again to go snorkeling with the Piersons in the rain! Miss you all back home!
