Potosi Pines Camp, Blue Diamond, Nevada

     After almost 6 months, I left Mesa.  I had such a great time it was difficult to leave.  It was an enjoyable season, full of good times with activities, visits with family and friends, and getting to know new friends.
     I headed to Mt. Potosi, which is just west of Las Vegas.  The church camp there is in a beautiful mountain setting.  I spent a week helping with a variety of maintenance jobs.  The first job was staining and assembling 6 adirondack chairs.  They now sit on the porch of the lodge.  Other jobs included helping to clean out old maintenance shed and hauling the stuff to the new shed, moving decorative bricks from  storage to where they will be placed, and preparing outer walls of a restroom so that a work crew could begin painting.
     While there I was able to do some hiking on their trails, which proved to be a challenge at a beginning elevation of 5800.  The trails were steep, but provided a wonderful view of the area.
     Next I will be going east to the Kansas City area to spend time with family before the next project.
