who else listened to Jeff Key play "Taps" at Camp Casey just now? |

At Casey II, it happens each night at 8:15 p.m.
Words can not describe how powerful it is.

8. it was a doozy last weekend. gorgeous sunset. somber moment. |
|
stars coming out...the words "a river of tears" came to my mind while gazing upon the rows of memorials. Looked over my left shoulder and there was steve earle--not in tears but maybe some twinkling...
Camp Casey felt special. Love and compassion. Jesus would have stopped and stayed for awhile.
