First Session: 4 Girls, 3 Canoes, 2 Leaders, 1 all-powerful God.

"Ang, You'll be leading the three week canoe trip."    .....and then it began.


My co-leader and I soon began dreaming about our trip and planning our route.  We would be navigating through the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in northern Minnesota.  The Boundary waters are a series of lakes and ponds along the Minnesota/Candian border.  Over 1,000 lakes waiting to be seen and experienced.    

So, our girls came to camp ready for an adventure!  These four girls were full of life and energy.  Three of them were from inner-city Chicago, one was from a local town.  They all brought their individual personalities to contribute to our group.  I must admit, I huge part of this trip experience relies on the fact that three of these girls didn't know they would be canoeing through wilderness until they got to our base camp!  They were suprised and shocked the first day, then agreed to give it a try.  So, our adventure began.
