Saturday we had wonderful weather. The kids played in the dirt, took walks, went on 4-wheeler rides, picked flowers, ate food and listened to stories. Seth took Analee out on the evening hunt, and despite not seeing anything, they had a wonderful time.

Sunday we got up bright and early and drove the 45 minutes from our camping site to church at Mack's Inn. It never ceases to amaze me how strong the Spirit can be in a church packed full of people I've never met before. Then we took the girls to Harriman State Park to have a picnic lunch and check out the historic buildings, but before we could go on a hike, we decided the weather was iffy and headed back to camp. That turned out to be a good call, because almost the rest of the day was spent in the trailer or under tarps keeping out of the rain. The rain broke long enough for us to enjoy the big Dutch oven dinner Grandpa Dennis had spent the day preparing.

Early Monday morning we heard rain, hail and thunder from our trailer. It was really foggy when we got up, but the rain stayed away almost long enough for us to pack up the truck. Right when it was time to jump in the truck for the drive home, it started hailing again.

See?!
