Outter Banks, NC

  We were busy the first part of August getting everything in VT put away and the Motor Home ready to leave on the 15th.



  We drove to Bob & Sue's near Salisbury arriving on Friday, spent Sat. packing the car and Sunday drove to Kill Devil Hills, to spend the week at the beach with our family. 
  We had a wonderful time.  The weather was perfect.  The kids were well behaved and happy.  The adults were well supplied with food and drinks.   We couldn't have asked for more.

Winchester, VA

  About 300 miles farther north we stopped in Winchester, VA. 
  Pat & Vern are here for 6 weeks and we couldn't pass up the chance to spend another couple of days with them.
  We stayed at  Candy Hill Campground for 2 nights.  It's a Good Sam's park.  We were reminded of how expensive everything is the farther north we got.  It was a nice park, but we are spoiled from living in South Texas.
  
 
This Angry Bird is actually a large round hay bale
 

When we got home this is what I found when I opened my closet.  Must have been that shirt I bought in VA. LOL!

So, Scotty had another job to do...

We added a shelf.  It's much better now.  I'm glad it broke. (shhh)


 We arrived in West Haven, Vermont on Monday.  The grass was a foot high.  Scotty got the mower going and started cutting.


The first time in 3 years that I have been here when the lilacs were in bloom.


I made this wreath to put on my Dad's grave for Memorial Day.

North Carolina

We spent a night in Fair Play, SC at Carolina Landing which is part of the 1000 campgrounds resorts.  The sites are privately owned and some are put in a pool to be rented out.  The  ones at this campground were not anything to make you want to purchase one.  Ours was small and slanted.  But we were able to set up and it worked out fine for the 1 night we were there.  
                                                          
Carolina Landing is on Lake Hartwell, SC

We have the best campsite in town

Fresh North Carolina Strawberries

Chris & Michealann met us for lunch in Asheboro.  It was a wonderful visit.

We plan to leave here on Friday.

Georgia

We arrived in Macon, GA on Sunday and parked our motor home in my cousin Even's yard.  This is the best campground in the area.   I love my Georgia relations.

This Weeks Project

  Scotty and Jim have been working on some projects together. Jim's hot water heater and a switch for their fireplace.  And for us....  a new TV.  We traded a campers hammock for this 36" TV.  Jim's son-in-law gave him a new one so it needed a new home. 
                                                                   
Scotty & Jim remove the old TV
 
 
Nice big hole
 
picture perfect
 
decisions, decisions...
 
 
Ta da!
