WRAPPING UP 2013

We had two busy weeks working at Springville Camp and Conference Center north of Birmingham.  There were two other couples at the camp that we had worked with previously.  We installed a roof on the 45 foot zip-line tower, a roof on the floating dock and repaired a roof on a double-wide modular home.  Additional tasks included moving furniture and preparing the lodge rooms for painting and setting up rooms for people coming in to conferences.

We had a lot of rain during this time.  Allan took a picture of the waterfalls.

We had a beautiful sunset.

At the end of the two weeks we made a long move back to our daughter's house.  (6 miles)  Katie was happy.  Allan cleaned the gutters, installed  exterior and storm doors, built another dog ramp coming from a 9 foot deck, along with a long list of many other miscellaneous projects.

We celebrated Christmas with our three daughters and grandson.  Santa brought Katie a new scratching mat which she was very happy with.

We finished up with doctors and dentist appointments and visited with several local friends.  We were able to share stories of adventures of the year with Joe and Carolyn Segler.  They visited Michigan and Wisconsin this year.  We have plans to be in that area in the summer of 2014 so we were very interested in comments of their travels and places they visited.

Here is an updated picture of Allan's hair.  It is really growing.  He thinks it should be long enough to cut for Locks of Love by the time we return back to Alabama in October, 2014.

Looking back to 2013 we have made many new friends, seen old friends and relatives and fulfilled our purpose in serving the Lord and traveling the county.  We look forward to the new year and the adventures God has in store for us.
