Adventures and discoveries

We spent the last couple of days with grandchildren.

They thought it was neat that we volunteer workamping.  They rode with us in the carts, checking sites, cleaning and picking up sticks for a nighttime campfire.  After the work was done they made clay creatures using model clay and played in the park, walked along the beach, watched Shrek 3, played Crazy Eights, cooked over a campfire, and popped popcorn. 




The kids picked cattails that were starting to seed and as they banged it against a rock, they found out that there are millions of seeds and that is why there are so many cattails around the swampy area of the park. 


 
As we watched a beautiful sunset, Theodore insisted it looked like lava flowing over the mountains.  He was right, it did!




Paul tended to our gardening (our traveling six potted plants) while I attended to dusting, vacuuming and general cleaning. We'll get our laundry done, wash the rig and truck then map our route to the next destination. We plan to stay another week and look forward to meeting up with family and friends in Arizona. Tonight we are having an early Thanksgiving Dinner with family.  We have much to bethankful for and are blessed with many blessings.


Thanks for stopping by.
