It\u2019s not what we\u2019re &#8216;used to&#8217;, but we are feeling quite at home now here at the church camp in Tahlequah OK. Then there are the bugs\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cWhack!!\u201d<\/strong> I was startled awake by a loud noise coming from the bathroom. I stumbled in to discover Jordan picking up the dead scorpion that he had killed with his flip flop. I wondered if this would become a regular occurrence&#8230; after all, this was the third scorpion he had killed in just one week!<\/p>\n<p>It has been crazy discovering all the unique bugs and creatures crawling around.  Some of them, like the tarantulas and scorpions, are at least known to me by sight; others are completely foreign. Many <em>look<\/em> like ones from back home (flies, wasps, etc.), but are literally four times the size! Every day is an adventure as we learn more about our new home. <\/p>\n<p>Wondering what our living situation looks like?
