When will the fun ever end?! (10)

I sacrificed any hopes of vacation by joining the Senior Class Young Men's Chorus and signing up for mission trip. Last home leave was dedicated to a special tour to southern California with the quintet, mission trip is occupying my entire spring break, and the last home leave of the school year was recently canceled. At least the first two are for a worthy cause. Let me recount my experiences from home leave last weekend.

The Big Three rode down with Mr. and Mrs. R to Redlands, where we met up with Chris and our host, Corey. (Danny managed to see as little of us as possible by staying at home) We sang our way through the weekend, hopping between LLBN, churches, markets, and malls. The food was good, the schedule not too hectic, the weather hospitable, and the socializing and male bonding excellent. Every night was a late night, but the trip was positively memorable. We made it back safely, narrowly avoiding two successive collisions while trying to find Jose's "animal fries".

Now it's over, but the fun doesn't end. I still have to watch the DVD of us singing at the Romanian church and we'll be looking for our program airing on LLBN. Canada is now calling the quintet, mission trip is just around the corner - whew! Such are the latest escapades of the Flying Dutchman.

Hey! We really did avoid two collisions while trying to find my "animal fries," didn't we?! That was so funny. I loved that trip, so I'm dedicating the trip to an entire page for yearbook! See you later.
