Some interesting things in OH

 Our friends, Rita and Floyd took us to Jungle Jim's in Hamilton, OH.  What an awesome place to visit.  If you get a chance to go, you have to go!

This is at the entrance.



Then, you are greeted with this sign....too funny!


They even have cute stop and go lights inside.


 Checking out the different cheeses.  I couldn't believe how many types and from different countries.

The following were things I had never seen in a grocery store before.
Boar's Heads

Chicken feet

Ducks heads.....not appetizing at all.


Beautiful produce section

And, the entrance to the bathrooms were hysterical. 
I could have spent hours and hours and hours in that store and still never captured all that is in there.

I am really behind in posting to my blog.  

We have sort of had a few glitches in our travels.  First off, our RV isn't ready and won't be ready till possibly the end of July.

But, with that being said, it's a God Thing, as we got a call, on July 2nd that David's Mom was dying and possibly wouldn't make it through the night.  We made a 2,000 mile trip from OH to Yuma, driving straight through without sleeping, except for 2 hours in a restaurant parking lot...and got here at 1:30 am on July 4th.

She is slowly declining. But, is still able to talk a little and drink liquids.  David and I talked to the Hospice nurse, because I have taken care of dying patients before, with Hospice, and I didn't SEE the 'signs' and she told us that from her observations and checking her vitals, it wasn't as imminent as we had been led to believe.  

So, at least we made it and David will have time with his Mom. 

On another note, the Wi Fi here is spotty at best....so I am having trouble with e-mail at times and being able to post to my blogs.

I sent a ton of photos to my e-mail, yesterday, intending to play catch up... but haven't received one of them yet :-(  So, until I can get those, I can only post what had already been previously saved to my computer or just write with no photos :-(

Please continue to keep us in your prayers.  We really appreciate it..

It's so hot here in Yuma.....we got up to 119 one day and today it's only supposed to be 107. 

Hope you all have a great day!!!

Hugs,
Char

Crockett, Texas "Paradise in the Pines"

Image
Crockett is about 40 miles from where we are staying at our current volunteer job with VCB.  We had gone there once to pick up a prescription and get a few groceries but didn't venture down to the actual town. I always have to look up the history of the town or what it’s known for or how it got it’s name….and of course things to do and see there.  Here is what I found: The town was named after David  Crockett  who reportedly had camped nearby on his way to the Alamo; the site was very near the Old San Antonio Road. A family from Tennessee donated the land for the town and named it after  Crockett , whom they had previously known. We, also pass through Groveton, on our way to Crockett to get groceries.  A week or two ago, on our way to Crockett, we passed a field where they had some guys in civil war uniforms.    We didn’t know what was going on till we got home and I Googled it….and found out they were enacting the battle of blackjack...

It's a God Thing, for sure

Hello.....some of you may have been following me on my other blog, http://Pawsn2stamp.blogspot.com  and have asked that I do a travel blog. Some of you know the story or how we became interested in volunteering with VolunteerChristianBuilders.org  and that is what we are getting ready to do. The name of our blog depicts the very thing I said when I had been talking to a friend via e-mail and told her how we had been tossing the idea around for over a year and I was getting so frustrated because we couldn't decide what to do.....sell the house or stay.  We couldn't go do what we wanted if we didn't sell the house but on the other hand, I LOVED my home.  So, one day, I told her "I am so frustrated, with the back and forth, back and forth trying to decide whether to do it or not, I guess someone is just going to have to knock on my door and ask if we want to sell the house and I'll know it's from God"  Well, not even 20 minutes later, the doorbell rang...

A Memorial to our wonderful Annie!!

Image
I haven't posted since November and some of you know the reason why, but for the rest of you....... On December 7th, we lost our beautiful Annie.  I still have a hard time talking about it, without choking up.  She was truly a gift from Heaven to us. I posted on Facebook but I just couldn't talk about her in person, without crying, and after almost a month, still have a hard time. But, since she was such a trooper and started the RV life with us at 12 years old and put up with travelling all over the US,  I thought she deserved to be honored in a blog post.   Please feel free to just move on if you aren't a dog lover, I'll understand. So here's to one of the best friends we've ever had.   I got to thinking that she traveled through 26 states with us during her lifetime of 16 3/4 years. She saw both oceans and walked and peed on a lot of different soil.  :-)     Annie as a pup in 2004.  She was a Mother's Day gift from...
