Hi all. Coming over from the Fellowship form of MADB.

I am a lifelong member of the Church living in Belfair, Washington. My wife and I returned last November from serving a mission in the Philippines, where we were the office couple in the Philippines Laoag Mission. We are retired (every day is Saturday) and spend a great deal of time traveling. I was a CPA and we used to form real estate investment partnerships and manage them. We sold the last of our properties a few years ago. Currently I am the Cubmaster in our ward; Jane is the YW recognition specialist. So we have a certain amount of free time that we are not quite used to.

I am a photographer and can be persuaded to photograph weddings and do portraits. I also teach flying lessons. I consider both activities to be better than watching daytime TV! We also raise oysters commercially, although this year has been bad because of a bacterial infestation on the Hood Canal.

Wow! I am beginning to think that I am the only non-Madd import over here!! I came over here from the ldstalk site. I still post over there once in a while, but I got sick of the abuse of power over there by one particular so-called "Mod" and the double standards that I saw regarding him and others... I like it here much better!! Welcome aboard!!!

Welcome Brother Campbell!

I went to girls' camp in Belfair. Do you know where Camp Hahobas is? (sp?) I went there for about 4 years or so. The last three times I went there, our campsite got flooded and we spent a lot of time digging trenches and stuff.

I've seen some of your photography and it is gorgeous! Very nice work.

Camp Hohobas is near our home, up on the mountain above us. Across the Hood Canal from us is Twanoh State Park and the Church-owned Zion's Camp is on the mountain above that. Zion's Camp currently has three senior couples serving there. We hang out with them a fair amount.

Hahaha! Where did you get that? I had forgotten about that picture! It was taken in Baguio at the butterfly sanctuary in Camp John Hay. John Hay was an old recreational base for the US Air Force back in the days when I was stationed at Clark Field. Things sure have changed there since then!
