Apr 25th - Cleaning Day

Today we did some cleaning and shopping. Everything is pretty much ready for our morning departure. Roll in the slides, stow the electrical, water and sewer connections and we should be ready to move out to the front of the camp where we can hook up the CRV.

Frank, the guy who I worked for while at Mt. Gilead, came by this morning and gave Kathy and I Mt. Gilead hoodies as a token of their appreciation. A nice gesture by the camp. We have had a good time here and the folks at the came seem to think that we "earned our keep" while we were here. Certainly a win/win deal.

Some random photos:
This was some of the "excitement" while Kathy was back in Missouri. Our son Doug was there helping (ramrodding) the demolition phase of Kelsey and Andy's (our granddaughter and grandson-in-law, Doug's daughter) kitchen remodel. The kitchen had been gutted prior to Doug's arrival. The single door you see on the right was a pair of French doors. The door on the left goes into the utility room. There was a big deck attached to this wall.
Note the doubled up floor joists and subfloor that was removed, and my pregnant granddaughter.
 Kitchen enclosed.
Doug is now back in Indy. Andy's Dad, brother and uncle were over today and put up the new drywall. Butch, Andy's brother, can do as fine a job of taping drywall as any professional (don't know who will tape this, Andy did some taping on when we were  there in November and he did a pretty good job, especially considering his experience level with taping drywall.

The is the road from the RV park to the main part of the camp. These deer stood there while I drove slowly by on my way to breakfast.

Amazing what you find when you wander around the camp. The license plate had a 1977 sticker. No head on the engine but this old GMC truck sure looked restoreable. I was told they have another one in a different part of the camp.

These roses climbed a tree beside Drew's driveway. They are far prettier than what the photo suggests.

This rose bush is in his back yard.

The flowers are really coming on at his place.

Good night to all and may God bless you and yours.
