Pictures
The last several posts did not have pictures. I have now added pictures to them. (if you're interested)
Lake Huron Retreat Center
It was time to get back to work and I headed to Fort Gratiot Twp, Michigan. Our nine member team has nowbeen working here for two weeks. One more week to go. We are demolishing most of a cabin and rebuilding it. It is right on the elbow of a river entering Lake Huron. The Center would not be able to get permits to completely demolish and build a new cabin at this site. So the foundation, floor, and one wall were left. This coming week we will be putting on the roof. Well...others will, I will hand them what they need.
The facility is quite modern and has beach front property. It's been a beautiful place in which to work, but the work has been one of the hardest in which I've been involved in 5 years.
Yes, I have been a full-time RVer for 5 years this month. What a blessing it's been to be able to travel, see friends and family (saw a neice and her children while here), make new friends, and do some good work along the way.

Happy Independence Day!!
Hope everyone has a great holiday.
I am currently at a campground in Indiana, having a little R&R. I have been busy traveling since I left Moore. I spent a few days in Independence, MO visiting my brother. Then I headed to Madison, WI to visit my daughter. We had a good time shopping and sightseeing at the House on the Rock.
I flew from there to NYC to see the older daughter. She is in a cute new apartment. We spent time walking, shopping, and dining in her new neighborhood. Very nice area including a park that is along the East River. You can see the Statue of Liberty and Freedom Tower in the distance. We went to Coney Island. I had never been there before.
When I flew back to Madison, I was picked up by a friend I'd met in AZ. She lives nearby in a beautiful log home beside a lake. I spent a couple days with her and went back to Madison and spent a little more time with visiting with daughter. When I go to Madison I stay at a little county park and the RV stayed there while I was out and about.
I then left for this campground. So far I have escaped any damage from severe storms. My phone went off with a tornado warning one night in Madison. Though, a tornado touched down a couple miles away, the campground had no problems. There were high winds with a storm the other night. I did spend time in the storm shelter, a.k.a. bathroom, but nothing happend.
I will next be heading to the Port Huron, MI area for another NOMADS project.
