| Took pictures for Wes and Gayla of their campsite and showed them this is what is across the road from them |
 |
| A little ways down the road is the sidewalk and steps going into the pavilion where services are held and dinner is served |

| Our camper is parked at the top of the hill on the right side of the road at the end |
 |
| Bill did a great job parking the camper and set up was quick and easy |
 |
| We went on a nice ride into Mena where we walked downtown through the shops and then went to Bealls, which is my favorite store in Florida. I was so happy when I found out they had one here. It is such a nice store. |

| Our friends grandsons from Petosky...Nick in the orange is running 100 miles from Petosky to Alpena. He ran it in 23 hrs. and 30 minutes. Finished 23rd out of 215 other runners, 3rd place in his age group. Just amazing! I can’t imagine running for 100 miles. His brother Peter ran a ways with him to cheer him on. |
We slept in til 8. I made my coffee and set the Keurig to make Bill’s. All he had to do was push the button. Bill read his Bible while I got ready. I went outside and read my Bible. It was already getting warm and was 75 degrees out. We got three 5 minute downpours today. There is a fire ban here, so rain is a good thing. We walked around and took a picture of Wes and Gayla’s campsite and surroundings and sent them to them. We talked to a couple of CMA guys sitting by a tent. We knew Joe, but not the other person. We got introduced. He was from Louisiana. We talked to them for a while, then walked into the pavilion and looked around. Then we walked back up the hill to our camper. We played a game of 3-13. Bill won by a few points. We rode the trike into Mena and walked around downtown in some nice shops. Bill bought a visor extender for a dollar. Then we went to Beall's and I got a couple of cute things for the kitchen and bathroom, and two cute tops for $11 each. Bill saw that it was supposed to rain, so we left and headed back to the camper. After we got in the camper, Bill said he couldn’t find his second wallet. He thought about it and remembered taking it out of his pocket in the bathroom and setting it down. He headed back to get it, while I called and let someone know. This really nice kid with Down syndrome, that I noticed working in the store being so kind to people, answered the phone. When I told him what happened, he said he would check to see if it was still there. He had it by the time Bill got back there which took about 10 minutes. Bill was happy to have it back and so was I. I had spaghetti made by the time he got back and we ate that and some delicious rolls from Lambert’s for dinner. I hung the curtain in the camper that goes in the hallway of the camper. Ziggy will be coming to stay with us next Tuesday through Saturday. He has stayed with us a few times in the motor home and we stayed with him at an Air B&B. We are on the go so much here and meals are provided most of the time, plus we go out to our favorite restaurants during the rally, so it’s pretty easy going here.
I talked to Vikki for a while. She said her arms where she needed injections are feeling better. She and Peyton went to our house today and Peyton got the mail and brought in the trash bin, while Vikki watered my indoor plants, checked Kit Kat’s cat food and checked on my fish. All was well. Thanks Vikki and Peyton, we sure appreciate you helping us out.
We played a game of 3-13 and we both were negative the whole game except Bill in the first hand and me in King and Ace rounds. I won the last round where we play 2’s are wild so stuck Bill with some points and got myself back into negative again. Bill won again, but not by much. We played dice after that and I won, but not by much. We had lots of fun.
We read our devotions, then I worked on my blog.
