After a hellacious J.O.E. (Junior Outdoor Experience. A mandatory backpacking trip for rising high school seniors at Lovett.) I decided to give it another go. The past couple years I haven't been around for the trip. This year though... I was in town and better yet it was Nate's year to do it.
With 11 kids, a co leader and I headed into Pisgah National Forest. We had perfect weather and a fabulous group. I really can't imagine a better case.

Yes, we may have taken a short cut in order to have a base camp and stay put for 2 nights. Clutch decision. We played in waterfalls and learned card games and feasted on the rest of our all natural food.

New high school principle, Mr. Alig was caught red handed getting McDonald's while in town. Busted!

Thanks for a fun week! It far surpassed my expectations.
