Traveling to Ohio

At the end of June (the 21st through the 29th) I traveled as a leader with my youth group to Ohio. First we took a little mini vacation and had three fun days in Columbus & Ohio. The rest of the trip was spent working at Joy of Living Ministries in Brinkhaven, Ohio.
My "You are Here" project documented the whole trip (the kids helped too and loved being part of the photos also)
