Moving Along

We’ve had two good days of traveling so far. We’ve traveled through Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and now we’re in Georgia. The weather has been good for driving. Munchkin has gone decided to ride some with Mommy and then some with Daddy. I’m taking pictures along the way, but I’m unable to upload them at this time. The campgrounds that we’ve stopped at thus far have been really nice. Our current campground could easily be a nice long stay due to the beauty of the area and activities available. But, we really must keep moving along. Thank you for…

The Clock is Ticking

Posted in Family, and Thoughts

It’s hard to believe in a few days we’ll be saying goodbye to this place we have called home for 2 years. Most of the time, it was just Munchkin and I, but we have enjoyed this place. We’re not sure why the Lord chose to lead us here for such a short time, but we know that we’ve been blessed by the people we’ve met and the places we’ve gone while here. I’m finishing up with the final things that are here and there in the house. We’re finishing up various items that need to be handled before we…
