Children, Toddlers, Young People and "Story Tellers" ….

Presbyterian and proud....
It was a busy, and productive, day.

This morning our Church had the annual Ice Cream Social.  The turnout was wonderful and served nearly 4 gallons of ice cream and an estimated 140 hotdogs.  As usual it was free and if folks were so motivated they could leave a little in the basket.  Good conversation, fun and fellowship. 

 


In the afternoon Josh and Linsay brought Dom up to see G and I before we leave for Chama.  Dom is growing so fast and will soon be walking.  During our absence in July there will be four family birthdays and in August Dom's first birthday.  We cannot make a scheduled party in Late July because we will be out of town.  To compensate Curt is now planning a "homecoming" and birthday event sometime in September or October when all the family can gather to celebrate these important, to us, events.



I attempted video on my Sony camera, it didn't work out.  I will try the Action camera next.  I did get a few cute pictures of Linsay, Josh, Dom, Curt and Georgia in the summer kitchen.  

We did some packing and started setting-up for the long trip with 
Instructional Video
the not so long trailer.  G wanted me to get a copy of an informative DVD to help with planning.  I wasn’t sure how useful it would be and we didn’t have time to get it by the time we leave.  We both know the plot well and believe it is possible to emulate the very useful lessons of this instructional video from memory.


By this time next week my first day of training will be over and we should have an idea of whether we will be touring the west or riding the rails.
