Wow, its almost like a ghost town around here, sure hope everyone is alright and getting EXCITED!!! 

I just received an email from our host and so I want to share a few details with ya'll.

There are a few things that you may need to bring;

PEANUT BUTTER (please don't forget to bring as much as you can of this stuff, we will being using it a lot! and the extra we will give to our host!)

Here is a request but by no means a requirement; dark single bed sheets that can be left at the center when we go home. it would greatly help our host if we can contribute to their retreat center.

Work gloves and boots/shoes. I am simply bringing old sneakers that i dont mind ruining. Now here's the thing, if you can find work gloves with reinforced finger/thumb then you can also use them for rappelling!

Also, if you happen to have a rock climbing helmet/ skateboard helmet (not the Styrofoam kind) you can bring that along too for rappelling/climbing. do not go out and buy new ones, they have a few at the ranch that we can take turns with.

WOOOHOOOOO for rappelling!!

We will be doing a lot of painting, detailing, and repair at the ranch, so if you have paint brushes or small tools that may help bring 'em!

One last thing, you are permitted to bring a laptop if you so chose! I know the RL handbook says otherwise but this is changing for you guys... it is simply to help you guys with your blogging needs. Continue to expect that internet may be limited.

Praying for you all as you are preparing for this incredible faith journey! If you have any questions or concerns, please dont hesitate to email Ryan or I.

my email is angelatibbo@hotmail.com

much love - angie (and Ryan)
