When we were getting the cabins ready to open for the season I noticed that a couple had Gideon Bibles in the bedroom drawers. I found that most did not have any. Our family has always helped support the work of the Gideons through contributions at church when they would come to speak to us or… Continue reading 07.30.13 The Gideon Bibles are here!!!

RV life brings with it some issues that have to be researched by each RVer based on their lifestyle and their desires and needs. When you live in a sticks and bricks house you buy a TV and get the local cable guy to hook you up and it works, end of story. If you live… Continue reading 07.28.13 Satellite dish upgrade, frost possible tonight, new neighbors and blueberries!

It is Friday, July 26th and the temperature here in Kabetogama, Minnesota at Noon is 54 degrees and windy.

Roy has turned into a fish cleaning fool! Let me tell you!! I on the other hand am proud that I've picked up a couple of live fish and moved them. Hey at least I was willing to touch them.

I’ve mentioned the flies and mosquitos in previous posts but today I saw something that needed to be captured in a picture so ya’ll could see how bad it can get up here.

For Independence Day Roy and I went into the nearest town (population approx. 6,900) International Falls for their parade. I tried to not expect anything like our parades especially the New Orleans variety and was pleasantly surprised at how delightful it was. I believe all the emergency vehicles from all surrounding towns were in… Continue reading 07.04.13 International Falls Minnesota Independence Day Parade!
07.04.13 Happy Independence Day!
