The campground has been busy since the end of June, the holiday weekend went off with out a hitch. Lots of young shoppers, gallons of ice cream scooped, ice and firewood flying off the porch all kept the store was kept hopping. Last weekend was another full weekend with a local baseball tournament going on, lots of tent campers some came prepared with 700 Jello shots. Our fears of trashed bath houses and torn up sites were unfounded, by 11am Sunday all the weekenders were gone. The past 4-5 days we have had the Hudson Valley Allegro group here before heading the FMCA rally in Essex Jct VT.
I worked on the 3rd & 4th of 4th of July but over the weekend we had company. Saturday we had friends out, Les & Deb provided most of the fixings for a shrimp boil, thanks guys.
We even had overnight guests, friends Mike & Carol pitched their tent in our yard and stayed a few nights.This worked out great since the next morning we headed out for a canoe trip on the Lamoille River. Unfortunately I forgot to put the card back in the camera so had to use the Iphone instead, most of the pics didn't turn out well :(
And then we came home and had pulled pork for dinner.
Dave's foot continues to improve slowly, the addition of the lift to his other shoe has made walking in the cast much easier on his back. At work he keeps the cast on but while home he is going with out it more and more.
My father has been released from the nursing home and is back resting at home, he reads the blog so I'm sure he'd second me saying again, thank you all for your concern and support over the past few months.
So aside a lunch date with my girlfriends, some reading of thousands of pages in numerous books over the past few weeks, the usual running around that life requires and working a few hours ere and there not much else is going on. We are making notes of some of the places folks are traveling this summer, a file we hope to take out and use in a few years.
Until next time... whenever that might be :)
Seems like the summer is going nicely for you even though uneventful. Good news about your dad :-)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have some spammers as commenters. Glad to hear about your dad. Glad to hear about Dave. Really hope he has no residual hip or legs problems from that cast and over compensating. I had more trouble later with that than with my ankle healing. Sounds to me like you've been quite busy. I've had that forgot the card problem but on a kayak paddle bummer. I'd have loved to have seen where you went.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to hear your dad is back home. I'm sure he's glad to be there too :)
ReplyDeleteMy mouth is watering just looking at Dave's pork butt :)
Before you know it, you'll be packing up and heading south. This summer seems to be flying by.
Sounds like your summer has been a nice balance of relaxation and workamping. Great news that your dad is back home!
