After dinner we brought the boys back with us to spend the night with us in the RV. It will probably be our last time having them overnight. They're growing up to be fine young men, and spending a night with grandma and grandpa probably won't be high on their list of things to do. Kyle will be driving the next time we see him and Kendall will be 13. It’s been fun watching them grow up.
Kendall, Jim and Kyle. The boys are wrapped in the afghans that I made for them.
This morning (Sunday) we were up early to get the boys home to get ready for church. After church we all went to lunch, then we came we came back home for awhile before going to Kendall’s football game later in the afternoon. The game was at the high school which is just one block from their house.
Kendall is #55
We watched the game (the Little Panthers lost), then had a pizza and came home.
Since we're leaving tomorrow here's a review of the Scott AFB Famcamp. The park is just eight miles from the family and we really like staying here, but with no sewer hookup we have to hitch up and move to the dump station to dump our tanks if we stay more than a week or so.
Our site
Bath house
There are several pavilions on the small lake, which are busy most Fridays with military unit picnics.
One section of the famcamp is in the open with no trees (the one we try to get).
And the other (older) section is very wooded.
There’s three lakes nearby.
Fall is here.
It’s going to be in the 30’s next week. We’re glad we’ll be on our way tomorrow morning. Since tomorrow is a travel day our next blog will be in two days.

Oh, I bet your chicken and dumplings is really good. Way back when, my grandma used to make the best chicken and dumplings and, oh how I loved it. Have never tasted any as good as hers since. Maybe it is a case of memory makes the heart grow fonder.
I haven't had chicken & dumplings in years. Your dinner sounds so good. The photo of the tree makes me so homesick for that part of the country.
I try to explain to Leonard, after the grandkids get to a certain age, they have other priorities than spending the night with us old folks. We still get to enjoy our time with the little ones, and cherish what time we do get with those who are older.
Safe travels
Getting to be time to head SOUTH. Safe travels.
Sorry I have been remiss in posting but I have been real busy with this house. Looks like we are getting ready for another life style change. It has been too long off the road. Stay tuned for more info...
