Who's still reading this?

Hello Everyone,
Did you enjoy my story of my Jesus Trail Hike?  I sure hope you did.  Who is reading this from IWU?  I miss you guys and I see that fall break is coming up.  Thats nice, I hope you all enjoy your break and your FALL.  Its still hot here. Hasn't cooled down any.  This past week I realized how much I really do enjoy all of the things that i despise about America, such as: Cars, Wal-Marts, and drive-thurs. So enjoy it for me, but limit your enjoyment for the sake of your own overall health.
Midterms are over for me!  Now I chill out a little bit and kind of coast to the end.  I am getting anxious to reach the end, but when I get back the US i'll probably miss Israel and dwell on how fast the time went by here.  But I do get an extra 3 weeks to travel Greece and Turkey and I'm nervous and excited about that too.
Tonight we are going to see some stuff going on in the Old City.  October is a popular tourist month and so there are tons of people around all the time.  There is also some special stuff going on in the city during this month.  So once I see it all I guess then I can write about it.
Tomorrow will be an average Friday:  wake up whenever, class at 1:00-3:30, Ultimate Frisbee from 3:30 till 5:30 or so. then Shabbat Dinner and welcome the Sabbath.  We'll have some sort of worship service together on campus and then sit around and play games.  Then back to the Galilee for me!
We have another field study this weekend.  This time it'll be 4 days long! wow.  We'll see a lot and I'll have a lot to share.  I'll make sure to blog all about it as soon as possible.
So I'm sure all of us will do doing different things this weekend. Traveling, relaxing, maybe doing something new and fun, or maybe doing the same-old same-old.  Whatever you do, make it worthwhile and enjoy it.  If you get real bored, open up your Bible and read about Jesus and all the stuff that was going on up in the Galilee, then try and imagine your friend Josh there, climbing the mountains and swimming in the sea.
theres the city wall standing above the trees. The little square building on the right is JUC. The tower behind JUC is the Dormition Abbey
