Hailey and Jack spent the night because Melissa was admitted to a hospital room and out of the observation room.  We are thanking God that she is getting the treatment and help she needs, so she can get better and not weaker.  She has got great doctors.  Bill took Jack to the Marine Corp. Breakfast with him at I Hop.  Hailey and I got to Rock the Island at 10:30.  We parked on the island, but had to park far away.  We made 3 trips hauling the cooler, chairs, storage containers with   stuff for our booth.  We had to go by a lady 3 times and she always commented on all we were carrying and how many trips.  Hailey was a great help.  Bill got there shortly after with the canopy. Elaine and Luis were already there.  We set the canopy and table up.  Walked around with Jack and watched him climb the wall and do archery.  Vikki and said we should have the Clam and that she would bring it to us.  So sweet of her. She went and got it out of our fifth wheel and brought it.  We just got it set up and got inside and the downpour came.  We sure were thankful to have a place to keep dry.  It didn't rain for long and was cloudy but nice most of the day. A few sprinkles now and then but not bad.  We had so many opportunities to pray with people it was amazing. We were so blessed and happy.  Met a nice kid who was a twin and goes to Hopevale.  He was very interested in our group for he and his friends to have Christians to ride motorcycles with.  He is planning on coming to our meeting.   Vikki, Rody, Peyton, Isaac, Hailey,  and I walked around and got lunch.  Picked up something for Jack and then he came too.  We sat in the clam and visited, walked around and then when Plum was singing, we went up by the stage.  Hailey and Mia were in the front row all the time and got hi fives from the groups.  They were having so much fun.  A girl from church was supposed to meet her friends there, but they didn't show up.  She gave Vikki her passes to meet Plum.  She took Hailey and Mia with her and Plum was so nice.  She took pictures with each one of us.  Vikki took Isaac when she saw him with Rody, and Plum took another picture with him, even though she had started walking back already. Kutless started playing and a down pour came.  The weather station had down that it wouldn't rain until 10.  Wes told Vikki it was going to rain and boy was he right.  Bill and Jack left before it rained.  He took Jack to KFC and then to see Melissa.   Kutless was kind of loud, but when they started playing worshipful music they were amazing.  Mia got a drum stick from the drummer and Hailey, Peyton and Isaac got their picture taken with the drummer. We packed up everything and loaded it in my car.  Love going to Rock the Island.  
Hailey and I went to Coco Loco's for dinner on the way home.  We called Vikki and she met us there.  We had fun and the food was delicious.  Set the clam up to dry out when we got home and hung out the canopy top.
