First Week

We left the Phoenix area Tuesday morning, it was about 90 degrees.  Spent the first couple of nights in Cottonwood AZ visiting with my cousin, Barbara and Clyde.  Got to Amarillo on Thursday afternoon - it was 34 degrees!  Sent the bodies into shock!!! Even the girls didn't want to go out!  Got to Cave Springs AR (just outside Fayetteville) at an RV & Golf Resort, near our friends Janice and Lloyd.  Had dinner with them last night and we went shopping today while Bill had lunch with his brother.  Had a few small (big???!!!) problems along the way with the coach and car, but we just said "Oh, Well" and dealt with them.

"When I got home and told my wife what happened, she accused me of deliberately tipping you over, so I could count you as a baptism for my preacher...

 Last month, we did something we have never done, and will probably never do again - we went on a hog hunt.  There are approximately one and a half MILLION hogs in Texas, and people are encouraged to kill as many as possible.  They are a very invasive species and will ruin entire fields of crops in one night.  They destroyed several areas of lawn, including rooting up irrigation systems.  Lakeview hired some professional hog hunters and we got to go along.  I won't gross you out with the details, but the night we went with them, they got a 250 pound hog!  That was a lot of bacon!  One of the guys processed it, which included soaking it in salt water for four days.   We have painted exterior doors on one entire set of dorms, cut lots of bushes, trimmed more trees and served in the cafeteria.  We have had two groups of people.  Most have cancelled.  One group was 185 people,  youth groups from a few of the local churche...

  This was our radar at 6:38 this morning.  Palestine is left center on the screen.  Praise God it missed us.  We didn't even have any wind or rain from the hurricane.  Many of the guests who evacuated from Beaumont have returned to their homes.  Some have stayed on.  God is so good!
