Making The Best Of A Rainy Weekend Camping At Jellystone, Fremont-IN

Campground Train Ride

After a rocky start to the weekend on Friday we did our best to make the most of a rainy weekend at the Jellystone Campground in Fremont Indiana. We started off Saturday morning with our big breakfast meal. After breakfast, and a little fishing, we took in a train ride around the campground.

Family Fishing

After our lunch we did some more fishing, of course.

Kids Fishing At The Pond

Both the kids enjoyed fishing, especially when they kept getting bites. The nice part is that the pond was catch and release, and the kids really didn’t care how big the fish were.

Family Wagon Ride

On Sunday the rain had mostly cleared out so we took in a lot more activities, including a wagon ride where the kids got to see some of the Yogi characters.

Picking Up Wood And Ice From The Ranger Station

Even though things were cool and damp we still needed ice and still managed to get some campfires in.

The kids were ready to get their annual pictures with the Yogi characters.

Jacob spent a good amount of time on Sunday looking for frogs and toads, along with some other kids that were also camping around the pond.

We finished off the last night of the weekend with another campfire with smores.

It was a challenging weekend for me but ultimately we had a good trip. I think we’re ready now to face rainy camping trips in the future.

    A Wet Easy 11 Miles

    I got 11 miles in this morning even though it was raining. With being stuck inside, and at home, pretty much all the time, I was glad to get out end enjoy the end of my run in some daylight. When I finished I enjoyed getting on a Zoom call with the #HWI team and catching up a little bit. This season will look a bit different without our normal kick-off, but we still have many ways to stay connected. #Run4Water #WhyIRun Be a partner for clean water: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr During my run the rain slowed down to a light most for a bit then it decided to pick-up again towards the end.

    Completed My First Marathon…

    Today was a pretty big day for me. I completed my first ever marathon. It was a tough day, with the down pouring rain, wind gusts of 20 some miles per hour, and getting cramps in my legs that slowed me down, I ended the race pretty discouraged. Not to mention I ended up having to be taken to the medic tent after crossing the finish line, which was something my running partner and I had talked about not wanting to have happen to us. Let’s just say it was a pretty humbling experience. I’m so thankful for all of the encouragement from the many Hope Water International runners the kept encouraging me on the way to the finish line. I especially appreciate Ron Bussa and Nick…

    Beginning The Next Marathon Training

    This morning officially started my next marathon training. As a ran I couldn’t help but think about the #HWI team and all the new people that may have a lot to overcome this year as they prepare for their first half or full marathon. Also those that have already sustained an injury this year and are on the mend. My prayers were not only for the team and God’s protection and strength, as they overcome each step of the journey, but also how God would use me this year to help the team through their training and continue to slbe used to further the cause. #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon Donate to Clean Water: https://timn.me/2Kx7NEr
