| 0:34.0 | Outside. We're going to be talking about getting in your outside hours over the summer |
| 0:38.7 | through spending time at a campground or glamping or just being at a place where the kids can be |
| 0:44.4 | outside and owner and founder co-founder of bear woods resort co-founder with his wife |
| 0:50.5 | bearwoods resort and campground john so much welcome. Jenny, it's great to be here. |
| 0:58.3 | It's been a journey with this campground, but I'm happy to share and tell the story. So this is a |
| 1:05.7 | unique, I don't know if I've hardly ever had any of my like good friends on the podcast, |
| 1:09.7 | but we've been friends for a really long time and I was thinking back about when I met your wife Nellie. And I can remember where we were. You know, we were at Oak Point Church. I can remember the room. We were in a mom's group together. And then I was like, I have no idea when we met John. And also it is a rare thing in family friendships where like the wives connect, the husbands connect, the kids connect. |
| 1:29.2 | And so I feel like we've kind of found this golden unicorn but i was thinking about you know |

It's like brand new. You know, they usually like drop the price a little bit because they know there's going to be some kinks. You know, it's like, oh, the air conditioning and what stuff's not working. So we were the first people, I think, to stay at that Holiday Hut. Yes, all 10 of our children. It was great. Yeah, like a basketball court, like an incredible. So anyway, I just think, obviously, our families have done a lot over the years, but those are foundational, like, pillars of a friendship.
