Thanksgiving at Pointes West Army Resort near Appling, GA

I have again been horrible at keeping up with the blog this week.  At the beginning of the week our new digital camera turned up missing, and I went into a blue funk!  We do not have a good history with digital cameras and I was prepared to start purchasing throw a ways!  After two days of pouting Caroline finally found the camera under the cushions of her hungry sofa that swallows whole anything that comes near.  I am happy again.  I told Billy today that our motor home is beginning to feel like home to me.  I have been surprised that this life change was an adjustment for me.  Of course, it doesn't help matters that we are in an area where our cell phone service is intermittent at best.  Brandon went to South GA to hunt with Lori's family over Thanksgiving  and Caroline has been off work all week so we have had a chance to visit with her often.  Phil spent the night with us in the motor home and was quite content.  We threw lots of rocks into the lake and took a few hikes. Since he only has dirt and grass at home to ride his bicycle on he was thrilled that we brought his bike with us to ride around the base.

We were lucky to be invited to the Paradise Thanksgiving celebration at Kim and Mack's house 25 miles away in Washington, GA.  They live in one of the old houses there and everything was beautiful and delicious as always.  Kim had her home decorated for Christmas beautifully and the good southern cooking was beyond compare!  Billy and I are fortunate that our children married into families that are much like our own.  Attached are photos we took at Kim's house last night.

Billy figured out how to put some bleach through our fresh water tank to freshen it up and keep it clean.  We are still getting rid of "stuff" in an attempt to lighten our load.  Everything in our new motor home is working as it should so we consider ourselves fortunate.  Especially after remembering the water leaks that we battled in our travel trailer.

We are tickled that Sue, Billy's Mom, is moving right along on learning how to operate the internet.  I believe that she is beginning to enjoy herself as she explores what it can do for her.  Life is Good Today.
