Clearmont- Perkins- CFBC

Thur. This morning I got all the parts and started working on the fuse bypass.  It was wonderful everything worked just as it was supposed to Yea.  After lunch and bible study I went to the pool to play and played volleyball.  Linda came up later and watched.  We swam together for a little while then she went and joined a ladies water aerobics class.  When she got out of the pool we went and played checkers on a large 10 foot by 10 foot board.  

Fri.  We have enjoyed eating on our picnic table.  The weather has been great cool in the morning and in the eighties in the afternoon.  As we were eating our lunch an airplane was writing in the sky.  He wrote Jesus 4 ever and Jesus loves u.  We went on a long walk this morning then a bike ride and paddle boat ride.  I went and played pool volleyball and Linda did the water aerobics again.  After dinner we went shopping and coffee at Starbucks.  We watched a Christmas show before bed.

Sat.  We had our routine of coffee in bed as we watched the morning shows.  Then breakfast and met up with our friends Cheryl and Steve Botts for a bike ride on the  West Orange Trail (a bike trail that used to be the old RR tracks).  At Winter Gardens they were having a craft fair so we ate many of the free samples they had and did not go to the ice cream store.  Linda and I will have to make the five mile (each way) bike ride again.  On the way we say an alligator and on the way home zebras and a horse-drawn carriage.  When we got back to the rig we cooked out hamburgers and had baked beans, cole slaw, and potato salad.  We played three game of pegs and jokers.  Lets just say the guys will be going to bed with winners.  

Sun.  After church we went to Lake Louisa where the Perkins are staying.  We picked them up and came to our rig where we had lunch and played cards.  After Jim’s birthday cake we went to Disney.  We were treated to Ghirardelli chocolate ice cream and Duke of Earl’s sandwich and later we had rice crispy treat.  We took a boat, bus and tram ride to the hotels to see their Christmas decorations.  The top middle picture is a gingerbread house from the movie Frozen. It has 311# of honey 514 # of flour 273 eggs 67#of spices 35# of sugar syrup 222#of icing 423#of chocolate. The house has 1500 shingles and has 15 hidden Olafs.  The bottom gingerbread house has 1050 # of honey 140 pints of egg whites 600# of powdered sugar 700# of chocolate 35# of spices and tons of creativity Disney Magic and Pixie Dust. The rest of the pictures are the trees and some characters.  When we got home around 8 all of us were exhausted.

  

Mon. We got up and after our bible study we started to get things ready for us to leave Tues.  After lunch we picked up Jim and Lana and went to Disney and played cards.  For dinner we met one of Jim's old classmates and had dinner.  After a visit and dinner with them we took Jim and Lana home and we went back to the rig.  Below is Jim's birthday cake that Linda made a Mississippi Mud Cake.  The bottom picture is the ice cream we ate at Disney.

Tues.  After our bible study we got everything hooked up and left.  I think that we have a handle on how to do it now.  From the time we started getting the rig ready and the car hooked to the rig it took one hour and fifteen min.  We only had 50 miles to go so we made it to CFBC before lunch.  We got everything set up, had lunch, then a nap.  After dinner we played a game.

Wed.  After our bible study I washed the car while Linda got things organized to take to my Dad's.  After dinner we went shopping and to church.  It was nice to see some folks that we got to know through out the years here.
