SHARING

Hola from the ENDEAVOR :

We arrived here at CAMP THICKET near Weslaco, Tx.,just 5 miles from the border, around 2 p.m. The Mitchells were all ready here. What we have seen is gorgeous, can't wait to take some pictures to share.

We awoke Thursday morning to fair skies, so we broke camp at the RL Ranch. Stopped at the RED BARN and took on a full load of propane (we had ran out.) Then we stopped at JOEL WESTS' RV repair and settled up our repair bill for the work which was finished Wednesday afternoon. PRAISE THE LORD then we took the Endeavor to the inspection shop,, she passed. Then to Wal-Mart to get the rest of Judy's Meds. only was able to get 10 pain pills so please pray that the mail order Meds get here SOON Then we took on a full load of gas at $1.67 per gal. Went back to Rainbows End, to get Litl Red, loaded on its tow dolly, and hitch behind the Endeavor and off we were. Passing bye some of the buildings of Rainbows End.
This the Westside Laundry Room just across from the Activity Building,,





down the road past the mailbox is the National Headquarters Building of Escapees RV club,along with the mail forwarding room (where our mail arrives and than sent on to where ever we are, once a week) across from there is the club house where we enjoy playing cards 3 nights a week along with movies.

Continuing out towards the highway one passes the CARE CENTER
Where one can get help with their daily lives right in their own RV, parked around the main building
the staff and/or volunteers come in and clean your rv once every 2 weeks, you get 3 meals a day, laundry once a week and even dump your holding tanks (sewer) and change your propane tanks if you are unable,

We then drove right through the heart of Houston.Passing past Minute Miad Park, the home of the Houston Astros. We were just ahead of peak afternoon rush hour Another THANK YOU JESUS. We then traveled another 90 miles and found "CAMP WALLY WORLD" at Victoria, Tx. for the night. We then drove over and down Gulf Coast through Fulton, Aransas Pass, and Corpus Christi. Then decided to come on down to our "HOME GROUNDS" for the next 6 weeks.

Received an E-mail from Kathy Webb, she is home, but needs a lot of TLC and recuperation so continue praying for her.

Also Rich, Judys son, continues to be adjusting to his new inviroment, please continue praying that this is a good fit for him.

Please pray for CHUCK, he was one of the single guys going through the Chaplains training with us. He and a couple others are trying to develop a ministry to persons with addictions (he is recovering addict, himself and full of the HOLY SPIRIT) Praise God

Please pray for our country leaders and servicemen SO BE IT GOD

Please pray for the CHRISTIAN RESORT MINISTRIES services this weekend including the Womens retreat here in the valley and especially Chaplain Don Baker, as again has 2 services scheduled this Sunday PRAISE THE LORD for this opportunity.

We ask again that you remember all the NOMADS that are either going to their assigned pojects or just leaving today as they travel safely, YES LORD.

Remember Judy and her pain that it will be minimal while we are doing our NOMADS projects next 9 weeks and that her Medications all arrive in a timely manner.

We ask GOD to send each of you faithful ones an abundence of Blessings along with a GREAT BIG HUG from The Longs-Judy and John along with those Traveling Cats: Bamm-Bamm and Pebbles' famous meows.
