Friday, 8/1/25, Put away some things in the camper, went to classes, went to Taco Bell for lunch, Marie went home, closed up camper and Bill dumped it, parked it and hooked up the trailer, went to evening service,

Rody, Vikki, me and Bill in our morning Ephesians class Tyler taught

Bill, Daniel’s dad, Tom, and Daniel’s brother David.  Daniel and Kenzie were great friends at BayShore.  His dad told me she would come over and visit them and he would read stories to them.  I asked Kenzie what stories and she said Adventures in Odessy.  I thought that was so sweet that he would do that.  He told me he was really happy when Kenzie got older and told him she appreciated him reading those stories.  She has a very special place in his heart. I love how you meet such wonderful people at BayShore.  Bill and Tom were ping pong buddies.  He wanted to take a picture of Bill and I, and I wanted to get a picture of the three of them.  They haven’t been there for a long time, but will be coming again next year.

After we dumped, Bill moved the camper at an angle next to our old spot so we could pull out easy after the service and head for home

Denny, Debbie, Anna and Randy at the evening service.  They loved it!  I’m so happy they came and we got to meet their friends

Peyton and Hailey enjoying the sunset

I got up at 6 so I could get ready and be done before everyone else got up.  I laid back down until I heard Vikki get the kids up.  Then I made my coffee and ate a muffin.  I deflated the couch bed and put stuff away.  Vikki took down the table bed.  We also packed some stuff because we’re going home today. Vikki and Rody left before Bill and I and right after we started walking, someone came by with a golf cart and offered us a ride.  We ended up beating Vikki and Rody, but didn’t get steps like them lol.  We were a little later getting to class.  We like to get there really early and sit on some comfy seats in the back.  We sat in different comfy seats.  Our classes were both really good and so were our cookies.  

Hailey came back and had some turkey and cheese.  Peyton and Isaac weren’t hungry.  They all enjoyed hanging out with their friends on this last day.  Peyton went over to Bridgette’s, Isaac hung around with Caroline and her brothers, Peyton went to the Coffee shop with Abby and hung out.  Vikki, Rody, Bill and I went to Taco Bell for lunch.  They had to be back to the campground to tye dye shirts.  When we got back, Hailey was in the camper.  I had a free taco that came with my meal in a bag.  I asked Hailey if she wanted it and she said yes and was happy to have it.  This is the first year, Isaac has really made his own friends and hung out with them.  He has known Caroline and her brother a long time, but always wanted to follow Peyton around to hang out with her and her friends.  Hailey has many friends there.  Bill and Rody used Rody’s jeep to go pick up our trailer for the motorcycle.  Rody and Vikki took down the tent.  Then Rody, Vikki, Bill and I packed up the clam, mats, small tables and chairs.  Bill and I put the slide outs in, put the jacks up and took the camper down and dumped it. When we got back, Bill loaded the bike on the trailer and we fastened it down and hooked it to the camper.  We all moved our chairs and hammocks to a nice shady area and spent a few hours there relaxing and napping.  Bill and I were going to go down and visit Wes and Gayla, but I noticed she sent me a text that they had left.  Wes needed to go home and rest.  He had a watchman put in the day before he came and needed a little extra rest.  

In the evening, I warmed up left overs, and made the kids who wanted spaghetti O’s and meatballs some, then we went over to the tabernacle for the service.  The speaker, Bill Hossler, came over and wanted to meet all of us.  Bill explained about CMA to him.

The worship was awesome again tonight and the message was great.  It’s always sad to leave BayShore, but always good to get home sweet home.  Bill and I left after saying goodbye to everyone.  Everyone else left later.  We got home, Bill took the motorcycle off the trailer, unhitched the trailer and then parked the motorhome while I helped direct him since it was dark out.  We unloaded what we needed and then I watered some plants.  We relaxed and I did my blog.
