Spiritual Retreat- Day #4

Day 37

"A gem for a gem."

Thinking all the way back to Tuesday, June 26th, it was a pretty good day. Well, of course it was! It was a Tuesday. I <3 Tuesdays.
I woke up fairly early that day. I remember that. It was raining, like it was pretty much all week. After breakfast, I went upstairs to put some finishing thoughts into my devotional that I was suppose to be giving that day. After I was done, we went over to the other cottage and I, uh, presented my devo. It was on worship, and I think it went quite well.
We had free time after that, so I decided to go for a walk in the pouring rain. Andy and Ben decided to join me. We walked up the dirt road and then turned back. On the walk back, we went puddle jumping. Then we went down to the lake to wash off our feet. I knew Ben was going to pull something and try and toss me and Andy into the lake, but I somehow cleverly avoided it. Then me and Andy, fully clothed, decide to jump into the lake. We were soaked from head to toe and my towel became my best friend. That was the closest I came to swimming all week. Everything good happens on Tuesdays!
To top off that perfect day, we had tacos for dinner. Then Tera-Mae, Andy and I did best friend surveys. It was such a great day.
