Sojourn at Mt. Dora Christian Home and Bible School

 Thur. We both had a good day at sojourn.  All of us were invited to the girls cottage for dinner and to meet the kids and house parents, some of the staff and the President of the school.  Here we are with the president of the school and his wife. Below Linda is visiting with some of the sojourners. They had a nice dinner for us and each of the kids got up and introduced themselves.  We also had two single mothers with their children there ( they have a single parent program).



Fri. After going to our accountant we drove to Bryce's baseball practice and Linda went with Tammy to get Hope ready for the father-daughter banquet.


 Linda and Tam went to see the folks at the banquet.When everyone got home I made cowboy coffee cake for the morning.

Early in the morning Sat. we had the boys come into our room so everyone else could sleep. Later everyone joined them. Below we went to Bryce's t-ball game. They played three innings and every one got to bat. They only go one base at a time.  Bryce, Tammy and I went to a birthday party at a bounce house.  They had over thirty kids for there two sons birthdays.  That evening Tammy and Kenn went out and we watched a movie with popcorn of course.



 Sun. we drove to Ponce Deleon State Park.  They have a Grill and Griddle House there. Everyone enjoyed making there own pancakes and adding the toppings to them.  Afterwards we drove through Deland Fl. below are some pictures







Mon. I helped the the folks doing the concrete today.  We formed and cemented a ramp for the ball field.  We got home to take our showers we found that the shower was still leaking.  After taking the walls down in the bottom of the unit and wiggling in to where the shower drain is.  I found it was not leaking from the drain but the floor under the shower was wet.  Next I took the faucet apart turned on the water to have the parts shoot out of the faucet and water sprayed all over the bathroom and bedroom floor before I could get the door shut.  I put the faucet together again using all the nuts turned on the water to find where the leak was (below is the picture). I used duck tape to fix the problem till I can get the part to fix the problem.


Tues. We were able to clean up around the concrete we poured and filled in alot of spots with the dirt we had brought in.  We also dug 18 holes 3 feet deep in the parking lot of the gym to protect the ac units.  We took the house parents of the guys out to dinner at Outback.

Wed. As we ate our breakfast we looked out to see this squirrel sleeping in a tree. Linda is still cleaning and today I poured more concrete getting the girls bathroom flat with no steps. We went to church and came home and slept.  This has been a tiring week.
