After a busy, busy day - doing everything from fixing a toilet to swapping tapes on a server, to getting Opa settled at home from the hospital, we finally got to HollyShores Campground - where Hitcharama is holding their annual Customer Appreciation Rally. Arrive @ 8:30PM - Nothing like setting up in the dark. Having a hard time leveling - since we are parked on sand.
No campfires because it's too dry - so no big group bonfire tonight. :-(
HollyShores does have LinkSpot and since we are "close to the Action" I have a pretty good Signal! :-)
Tried Posting with the new cameraphone - can post text - but can't post with mms (pictures).
We'll see what tomorrow brings.

First Annual Bike Trek
We Did the First Annual BikeTrek for RPC Youth after church today.
We had only a handful - but it was a good test for a first time out. We dropped of the youth @ the Conchy Train Staion - Kevin drove the church van with some in it - and pulled the trailer full of bikes. Diane was the 'female liason" to ride with the girls. We had a few in RoadAbode and Dropped them off - then headed to Betzwood Park and
waited for them to arrive. Kevin estimated it would take 1 to maybe 2 hours for them to show. We no sooner setup camp at the Park when the first two raced in - Sam and Mindy
We got them watered and snacked and started the grill for the hotdogs.
Eventually, everyone showed in about 90 minutes.
We ate, had some time for prayer, and
then they headed back - and so did we.

Ice-Cream, Ponies, and the Pool DO Mix....
Yep - for the past few days - the hardest decision is what flavor ice-cream you want to eat. Emily goes for an old favorite- soft serve swirl (chocolate and vanilla) but is "test-driving " regular and pretzel cones. Jury is out on which she likes best.
Kimberly is trying the weird flavors, with names like moose tracks. Hey, it's ice-cream, how bad can it be?
Amy is staying conservative too - with a changeup of milk-shakes.
Me - I'm torn between "vacation mode" and watching my weight, so I go with the soft Serve "kiddie cones" - they are really big enough for me.
Here's some pix of the girls enjoying some cold delights
Yesterday the big event (Next to the Ice-cream Stand) was the pony rides. Kimberly was not interested, but Emiy took 3 Rides. Even stood in line by herself!
Right now we are all by the pool (as I type this!)
It's a little cool for Amy and I, so the girls are playing together in the water, while Amy reads, and I edit pictures and write.
