Church camp out accomplished what it sets out to do

Back home working and on the way to bed.

Kallie has been looking forward to the church campout for a long time, finally Friday arrived and thanks to her daddy we got the paddle boat loaded on a borrowed trailed and drove to Lake McSwain.

We really had a very relaxing and good time, on Sabbath afternoon kids and adults had a fun playing in the paddle boat and even though it was cool we still really enjoyed watching little ones on the water for the first time and others enjoying it once again.

The guys at the campout were great helping put the boat in the water and then bring it out this morning and our return trip was uneventful as we found phone service again and reclaimed out place in the world.

This afternoon I fitted in two appraisals and then had a flat tire on the bug as I drove home, not fun but after a quick tire change I'm home and safe, so thankful for that, not sure what happened but I heard a loud noise and then I could hear the noise when a tire is losing air so I got off the freeway and found a level place to change.  Not easy as the tire is very heavy to lift out of the well in the back of the bug but its done.

Life throws curves in our path, we deal with them

So grateful that the Tracy church keeps on having the campout, I missed having George and Yvonne there full time this year but their motorhome came with its new owners and they drove up on Sabbath to spend the day.  Talk about loyal campers and church members, there will never be anyone like George and Yvonne and their love for the people, the church, the school and Tracy.  We are so blessed.

I enjoyed music from our special friend Chuck, He and Linda come every year if they can and his music has created many magic moments around the campfire at campouts just like this one.  Blessed again.

So I go to bed happy, contented and thankful to belong to such a special group of people.

Love to all

Tim
