A Girl Called Gus And The Case Of Summer Greatness.



Summer is a lovely thing.


Went to Portland for a birthday thing where we were followed by numerous creepers, lost basically the whole time, and had wonderful bacon maple bars from the famous voodoo donut shop.




We all decided to make a trip out to the Tree of Life in auburn. It truly is a great and wonderful tree.


This was a sign that someone had changed around to say "F Old People." One of the greatest jokes of the entire trip to Republic.



We then went to the lake where we decided go on an adventure where we "frolicked" through the wildflowers.


The Team.








This summer has consisted of wonderful friendships, interesting escapades, and has been full of memories. They say a picture is worth a thousand words so I guess there is really no point in continuing any further. That's all folks.

Sincerely,
Kelsey Jo Gus

The Pond Called Life.

I am nothing but a small, scarred fish in the pond called life. I have been caught and reeled in by a great and mighty fisherman named God. I struggle when I get close to Him because it get's hard. I face more challenges and it gets difficult to breathe. So I try and let the line out a bit because I tell myself that I can do it on my own, and I can go back to the last time I felt truly and completely good. But, He still has a hold of me. Even as I push myself away from Him, and deny and disappoint Him, He still has me in His hands. As I struggle, as I hurt, at it gets harder to breathe, He still has a hold of me and has promised to never let go.
