CAMP THICKET-WESLACO, TX.

Meowwwwwww!!!

Dad and mom have been busy here in southern Texas, We have the Endeavor parked at Methodist Camp Thicket, a rural setting not far from Weslaco, Tx. Dad says that us cats can't even run free here, because of the Bobcats, and other wild animals. Then on the weekends, there are those 2 legged "pests". Kids running all over the grounds, even close to the RVs.

During the 1st week Dad, Bill Mitchell, and Harold Annis built a roof cover for the Bar-B-Que area near the North Complex.
While Mom,Carolyn Mitchell, and Jo Ann Annis cleaned the Kitchens in both the North and South complexes and the restrooms in the South.

Dad replaced a faucet and cleaned the drain, so that it would empty more quickly, in the North Dining room restroom.

Then on Wednesday the Team started in painting the exterior of the 15 buildings on the Camp property. By Thursday evening they had completed cottages 1,2, and 3. of the North complex.

We (us Traveling Cats) were orphaned on Friday as the folks went to see a new Dr. for Moms pain, along with shopping and getting acquainted with the area. Then on Saturday they went to visit their friends, Jack and Karen Gregory, who are over in Alamo Rec-Veh RV park, along with Dennis and Sally Maloney (the founder of CRM). Sunday found them attending the Worship hour at Alamo Rec-Veh. Mom said that it was just a wonderful experience, especially hearing a gifted speaker as Chaplain Dennis is. Sunday night Mom and Dad went to the Chicken Coop Opry for the Sunday Night Gospel sing,, Mom said that it wasn't too bad for Amatures,17 performers along with a back up group. but it is too far to attend each week that we are here,

Mom and Dad managed to get in 2 game nights this week. The group played Mexican Train one night , then they played Hand and Foot.

Week 2 we didn't see much of them again as they were busy painting buildings 4,5,6,7, and 13.

Dad took time to install a donut gasket on a stool in building 5 that was leaking badly, he also added a new flush handle to this stool. The stall next door also needed a new handle. Dad checked and tested the other 6 stalls for needed work, found none. Then he was handed an Exit light that needed to be installed in the Chapel, as one had gotten broken.

Tonight they had a Fish Fry potluck, Mr Annis had been fishing each morning since they got here and had a tidy sum of Catfish to be consumed and WE DIDN'T even had and invite for left overs. The Mitchells made slaw and hush puppy s, Dad made is Famous Peach Cobbler.. they also had mixed melon/fruit and rolls . The other couple staying and working this week are Roger and Barb from Wisconsin

Mom and Dad were late in coming in as they stayed with the Annis and Mitchells and played something called Pegs and Jokers. Sooo watch out you all dad is learning all of these new games to spring on you.

Tomorrow the folks are planning on heading to South Padre Island.
so they are headed in now so I better get off of here before dad takes my treat time away.

May GOD BLESS
Purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr bye.
Love the Traveling Cats Bamm-Bamm and Pebbles
