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!
Three days this week Kabetogama United Methodist Church held its Vacation Bible School. Two of those days I was blessed to be able to help with the crafts part of their Hay Day - Growing in Friendship with Jesus VBS. They transformed their fellowship hall into a farm themed event with spaces for our crafts, for snacks and for moosic (music)… Continue reading 07.24.13 Kabetogama United Methodist Church Vacation Bible School – Wednesday
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. This is the wall on the front of one of our cabins and those lovely little critters are MAY FLIES. A lot of those… Continue reading 07.18.13 May Flies, more riding toys, herbs from the garden and my poor, poor phone!
My old boss Donna sent me this when we first moved. I don't think I've ever included it in a blog post. I guess this sign was talking about us since we retired up north! We'll be back south during the winter but at least for now we're retired Northerners. We have two little chipmunks… Continue reading 07.11.13 Chipmunks, Loons, Awnings and Chives ~~~~~
Some of our previous guests brought really cool water toys for pulling behind the boats or just general water play. This week’s guests brought some and I took pictures to share. Our friends who have camps probably see these things on the rivers and lakes all the time but for us water deprived folks it’s… Continue reading 07.08.13 Super riding toys!
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!
This post is mostly for RVers but could be helpful to anyone who has the need of a GO phone. I believe this post rivals the Conroe, TX blog in length but definitely does not have as happy an ending. A GO phone is a prepaid phone which can or does not have to be renewed… Continue reading 07.02.13 A T & T – grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
After a long hard Saturday work day which ended at 8 pm we were settling down in our RV and heard a little knock, knock, knock at the door. It was Tom, the resort's owner, with a present for us. He previously told us he was going to try to get this for us, but we didn't… Continue reading 06.30.13 Our Saturday evening surprise!
We're on the last of our days off before "Senior Citizens Hell Week rolled into one day" come around again! 10 more of them to go and I'm going to hang on to that light at the end of the tunnel like a mad woman! Still loving our life here and we will hate to leave this beautiful… Continue reading 06.27.13 Begin each day with a grateful heart
