Day 148, 8/11/2020, Kimmy and The boys came up and spent the day with us

Eli's chair was on the hill, and it fell over.  I fell on the same hill while walking a short time later.  Vikki blocked it off with my plant after that so we didn't walk on that area

We all played 3-13...Peyton, Eli, Adam, Isaac and Jacob...just took a picture of the kids

Jack, Bruce, Evan, Max and Hailey by the fire pit at our house.  They watched the shooting stars there and Melissa told us they were seeing lots.

After breakfast, I read my Bible outside. I’m reading Bill’s Study Bible and love it!  We were happy when Kimmy and the boys got here.  We visited in the wonderful shade by our camper.  Then we played 3-I 13 in the clam.  Vikki and Eli didn’t play.  Kimmy was the winner.  She beat me in the last hand.  We had lots of laughs at us crazy dealers getting mixed up.  We had sandwiches for lunch.  Adam tried chicken salad and loved it.  We went for a walk around the campground.  It was warm in the sun but not humid at least.  We hadn't realized it was so warm because of all the shade we had at our campsite. We got warm on our walk, and decided to go swim at the beach.  We all got cooled off with our swim.  Melissa, Bruce and the kids had a campfire at our house, then watched all the shooting stars.  She let us know she was seeing lots, so Vikki and I went out and watched them.  Peyton, Isaac and Papa didn't want to watch for them, so they all played cards in the camper.  Isaac did come out later and watched with us for a while.  We saw so many and loved how they shot across the sky with long trails behind them. Absolutely beautiful.  I love God's beautiful creation.  The heavens and earth declare the Glory of the Lord!
