Meanwhile, back at Forest Glen –

[I started this post back on 10/29. Yikes! Apparently it’s taking me a little longer than I thought it would to figure out what cupboard is best for the peanut butter! Maybe this week I’ll get this ol’ blog back on track! So let’s start that tonight…]

Although our main focus these days is our little house in Lindale, I realize I never did a final wrap-up of our time at Forest Glen Camp! We were the only SOWER couple on site that month, so mostly we were working together. But I did start the month labeling ALL of their sound system wires and equipment,

and sprucing up their music stands.

But the big project Gary worked on (with some assistance from me when needed!) was helping to finish off the interior of the new camp store!
Our first view –

Step number one – install accent boards on the ceiling.

Yeah – there were a lot of them!! Once the ceiling was done, it was on to the track lighting.

Thankfully we were not tasked with chalkboard painting that giant black wall, but Gary did spend his last couple of days wielding the floor sander to get the concrete ready for its final finish.


They promised us an “All Finished” photo when that building is open for business – sure hope they follow through!
So it was a good three weeks! We fit in a trip back to Lindale to continue working on the shed floor, were able to accomplish all of our Area Rep annual visits, worshipped with friends, and even enjoyed a meal with a brand new SOWER couple that lived nearby! Lots of pieces to our October puzzle, but I think they all fit together just fine!

Thanks for stopping by – and I hope to see you again soon!

Ah, Sweet October – where have you gone?

Sometimes it just creeps up on you. You are just going about with life in general when suddenly it’s time to turn the calendar over! October has been a busy month for us – three locations, becoming Texans, working a SOWER project and spending time with family. So before we start that new month  tomorrow, here’s a bit of a summary-

Waco!

Aside from all the licensing and address changing and becoming Texans, we also had a sweet time with our Waco kids and grandboys!
Although Weston, the 6 year old, was in school most days, we did get to have him for an overnight and then he rode with us as we got the RV inspected.

Having him along made the inconvenience of having to move the house in the middle of our stay much less painful. There were also a couple of intense games of Battleship, which I may or may not have lost. Continue reading Ah, Sweet October – where have you gone?
