A WEEK AWAY

Hello everybody!

I hope you have noticed my absence this week. The day after Easter, Harold, Scout and I got up early and headed to Louisiana. Chris’ baseball team started the playoffs this week, and we wanted to be there for that.

Us with Chris (and his "special"mustache for the playoffs).

If you’re new around here, you may not realize that Harold and I are also homeowners in Louisiana. Well, kind of. We bought a camper that stays at Chris and Amy’s. We had a pole barn built and the camper stays underneath it. It’s a perfect home away from home for us. I have my own kitchen to cook in; I don’t have to mess up Chris and Amy’s. We even have a washer and dryer in the camper. When we went down last month, Harold and I stayed in the camper, along with Shawn and Amy, Griffin, and Mason. We have plenty of room!  It has also been perfect for family members to use. Last year Griffin and some friends drove to Chris’ to go to some LSU baseball games. They were able to stay in our camper. This just makes it easy for everyone.  

The living room area. This couch makes out into a bed, and both recliners go back all the way for sleeping areas as well.

My camper kitchen. I have a kitchen with a full size refrigerator, gas oven and stove, and even a pantry (behind that door).

Our camper bedroom has a king sized bed, a walk in closet, and a washer and dryer.

We have a camper that we store in Gulf Shores as well. We found that it’s more convenient for us (and ends up being cheaper and easier) to just store it there, since we only use it at the beach. We rent a lot at our favorite campground for the whole month of June. Harold and I will stay for 2 weeks, and Shawn and Amy pay for the other 2 weeks and use it then. We love camping!

We’re back home now, so it’s back to normal this week. Shawn and I are going to plant the big garden, so I will bring you along with us on that journey. Thank you for taking the time to interact with me here. I love seeing how many people read my words, and seeing where you are from. Please leave me a comment and tell me something about you. Where are you from? What are you doing this week? I am thankful to have you in my life. Remember to be salt and light!
