Hackberry Creek Farm | May 28-30, 2011

My dear friend Emily invited me to her youth group's annual trip to a farm three hours southwest of Enid. At first I did not want to go because of my lack of religious reasons but she insisted that I go to have fun and take in the experience. It was going to be an 18 and older kind of thing or high school graduates and up + college kids.

I don't know what's been wrong with me lately but it's as if I don't get excited for much. The day came when I had to get up early in the morning and meet them at their church to head out in a group. It was like any other day to me except I had to get up earlier. I think I might be in depression again. I have not been like this since I was 13-15 years old. My emotions are at a stand still most of the time. Oh well!

For three days and the two nights we stayed, the boys were in a cabin and the girls in a large house. Bunk beds were there for us when we arrived as well as a large kitchen. The farm had LOTS to do.. There was a pond with a slide, zip-line, swing, and rope. The group brought out three boats and plenty of fishing poles. There was a swingset on the other side of the farm and a small merry-go-round. Behind the kitchen/picnic area was a huge enclosed fire pit and with seating for a large group. On the first night we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows there. There were MANY more little things around the farm for us to play on and run around on (double bicycles, hay bale maze, etc).

I'm gonna throw in a few photos (near the bottom) that were taken by someone else at the farm and happen to have me in them ;)

I had only a couple days earlier recieved my newest lens in the mail! Canon 50mm f/1.4. So glad to have brought it with me to Hackberry!
