Bill and Vickie and their family, especially Vickie, spoiled us rotten.  Great food and lots of it and a great family get together.   Thank all of you very much for a great family gathering!

Wetumpka, Al to York SC

It's more like a park with a lake.

South Carolina peaches better than Georgia peaches? Only taste will tell.


All the yards are HUGE and many houses look this good.

Where We Are (Problems With 5th Wheel)-7/19/11

Hello everyone. We're currently in Wetumpka, Alabama for a few days. We're staying at Jack and Vikki Damoth's. Jack is an army buddy of Joe's. They are great people. Our 5th wheel is in Calera, Alabama about an hour and fifteen minutes away. The air conditioner went out and with the humidity it is about 108+. We survived 5 nights without air and a couple of fans. I don't know how, other than we were sight seeing during the day and it did cool off enough at night to sleep. Thank goodness. We're adding a 2nd air conditioner to the bedroom because Louise wants it cooler.

Also, for those who don't know, Joe's family and some long time friends call him Skip.

It's so HOT, even...(Alabama)

The cows go swimming.
