I Love Fall




Yep, here's the little hisser I killed with a shovel....nope, the hammer was not my weapon of choice. I just put it by the snake so folks could get perspective on it's size in the photo. Now I have mothballs sprinkled EVERYWHERE!


I have let so much time pass by that there is so much to catch up on in the blog. Our Tuesday nite Bible Studies are fun...we talk about so many things. Really learning a lot about the attitudes and values of the folks that come. I am surprised and love it!

Al has finally moved all her "stuff" home for a few months. She is planning on going back to school spring semester so she won't be here long. She's waiting for the final word from Columbia Theological Seminary in Atlanta/Decatur, Georgia. No, not a Divinity program....they have an excellant language/history department - Master of Theological Studies degree. She is really trying not to get her hopes up.....but it looks very good!

I'm wrapping up all the loose ends of Workcamp 2011 and treading quietly into Workcamp 2012. Already picked the theme song, working on the brochures and doing some pre-work before I start looking at houses in November.

John's son, David, landed a prestidious job and now has an office in D.C. and one in Paris. He's in France right now and Al is making plans to go over sometime with him. Loooooooooove Paris!

Figuring out what to do with the driveway....the foilage is closing in and getting a "bush hog' is really expensive. We'll figure it out!

Spoke at the Petersburg Rotary Club meeting the other day at the Pburg Country Club. Still have a hard time believing how Olde South that place is.....whew!

It's about this time I really begin missing our workcamp friends. So glad we have a wrap-up meeting in October along with the board meeting. It gives us a chance to say hello before the holidays. This registration begins Jan 2nd so we begin talking more often. We are coming up on the 25th anniversary celebration of some sort. If we count incorporating, then the anniversary falls in 2012. If we count from the first TCW camp, then it falls 2013....we'll talk it over and see what works!

The day is waiting....
