Mid-week westview week 1

HEY :: We are surviving the heat and humidity, Judy and the other 2 ladies on paint crew are over half done with the womens showers and restrooms.
John and the cabin repair crew have the demolition done and have actually started the rebuild,,, we found the back of cabin ( the north side) badly rotted and termites damaged . So we tore out all the damaged boards including the end support beams. These beams were back in place by 4 pm today. :)

The other couples name are Jim and Jan Gee, from Ohio; and Tom and Connie Mitro, from Virginia; Jim and Roxie Waters, from Texas, and team leaders Jack and Arlene Fenn, who are full time RVers orginally from the Chicago area. I better post this before I loose the signal:((((


Please pray for the Katrina victims as they are remembering the disaster of 2 yrs ago. also please pray that we have continue good weather to complete our task on time here at WESTVIEW ON THE JAMES.

Also we just found out that our next Nomad assignment in Hinton N.C. will include most of the team here now except the Mitros, which is very unusual for NOMADS teams work together for more that 1 project!!!!

WESTVIEW ON THE JAMES-DAY 1

Hi folks !!!

I saw that those pesky felines had their paws on here again. We can't seam too leave this out when we are gone :) Well we have begun our 1st 3 weeks of returning t0 NOMADS here at the Virginia United Methodist Camp - WESTVIEW ON THE JAMES. It is very peaceful and relaxing here. I would rate it very high on the overall camp structure of those that I have been apart of in the past.

Judy and I are a part of a Five couple NOMAD team doing at least 3 different projects here in the next 3 weeks (12 working days) Team leaders are Jack and Arlene Fenn ,full time RVers, Jim and Jan ; Jim and Roxie Waters, from Ft. Worth, Tx.; Tom and Connie ---- from here in Va.

I am rehaping a bunkhouse while Judy is on the paint crew redoing the restrooms in the resident camp area.

More details later, as we have limited access to air time for the computer:(

MOM HAS A NEW TOY !!!!!!!!

Meow meow meow (or howdy ya'all)!!!

Pebbles and I (Bam-Bam) have been really anxious to get our little paws on the computer, so that we could share some insights of OUR adventures during mom and dads travels.
While in Iowa, back in June, we got abandon at Belle Plaine's Countryside Vets, while the folks were out of our home on wheels (5er) for almost 2 weeks. We were even kept in cages, as if we were harden criminals LOL,
We then made the trip to Virgina very comfy stopping at campgrounds in Illinois (KOA Quad Cities, 1 paw print from the 'the longs-on the road' rating system) then the next night we stopped at SUGAR CREEK CAMP GROUNDS, near Crawfordsville, Ind.4 paw prints, then on the third night we stayed at THE OUTPOST CAMPGROUND near Morehead, Ky.5 paw prints.
While at MISTY MOUNTAIN CAMP RETREAT, near Crozet, Va.; mom and dad were workampers again. We didn't have any pesky cardinals as we did at Pine Mountain, in Ga.; so we found plenty of time to catch-up on our cat naps.
We heard Mom saying something to dad about going and getting a "toy", so was our ears really perked up to find out what was coming to join us. When they got home, phone calls were made to business professionals back in Belle Plaine , to assist in making Mom's new toy happen. It must of worked because Mom sure was in a great mood all day. We still haven't seen what this "toy " thing is yet but we think it might be something to get a better ride in. Mom says that she gets to have it in about a week when they (who ever they are) get things in order for her too take procession ... ..... we just over heard dad talking to some friends,telling them that the new "toy" is a FIRE ENGINE RED 2003 TOYOTA MATRIX SPORT so maybe we will be getting a better ride from NOMAD assignment to NOMAD assignment if we behave:)
We better scatter and hide as the Ram just pulled into the drive here at WAYNESBORO NORTH 340 CAMPGROUND, 4 paw prints so til the next opportunity to dance on these ole keyboards its Pebbles and Bam-bam,'THE TRAVELING CATS saying meoeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew ( good night ya'all)
