Rain, Rain, Rain

     We have been in Clarence, MO for 14 days now and have had 12 days of rain.  The driveways around camp are muddy and our RVs are slowly sinking in their parking spaces.  We walk around backs of cabins to get to our places for work.  yuck.  Well, at least it's not the snow that there's been in PA.  It's been cold here, but hopefully it'll warm up some this weekend.  The acorns dropping onto the roofs of the RVs sound like gunshots while one sits inside.  Its nerve-wracking when the wind blows.

    So far we have built a new wall that enlarges the sanctuary, dry-walled, mudded, and sanded it. We also tore out a piece of the floor in a cabin and replaced it, vacuumed and shampooed the carpet. 

     Last weekend we went to Hannibal, MO (about 45 miles from here).  We toured the birthplace of Mark Twain and The Mark Twain museum, which houses several original Norman Rockwell paintings.  We then went on a riverboat on the Mississippi for a dinner cruise.  My brother joined us for the day's events.  It was a good, but chilly, day.

     One more week here.  Then we'll see if we can get out of the mud pits.  This Sunday at church is Round-up Sunday.  Everybody is to dress in cowboy attire.  YEEEHAA
