Creation Camp at Wilderness NW

What a Blessed Week! On Sunday after Church the kids and I packed our bags and headed south, then West, Then North again... To a little.... like REALLY little town called Brinnon WA in The Duckabush Valley off the Duckabush River, Up Duckabush Rd. :) (Do you follow?) Why would we head off to such a secluded location.... For Day Camp!!! We stayed at The Refuge Retreat Center and Sent our Kids to Camp each Day at Wilderness Northwest. Unfortunately we had to leave 2 days early because Gunner has Boy Scout Camp also this week. But we feel blessed for the time we did get to spend there! Here are a few photos from our amazing week!
