Time to do a little catching up on our blog, since our last post was about six weeks ago when we wrapped up our project in Oklahoma. From Oklahoma we went back to Alabama for our annual doctor and dentist appointments and some business matters. After that it was to Gaffney, SC for Fred’s annual maintenance and then we took a few weeks to spend time with family.
After our visit to Gaffney, our driver side rear view mirror was shattered by a careless trucker so we had to repair that before we could get back on the road. We also replaced the fresh water pump in Fred.
As has become our tradition we spent Thanksgiving and a couple of weeks after with Max’s brother’s family.
Over Thanksgiving weekend we helped one of our nephews install a metal roof on his garage.
We had a great time camping with Randy and Debra at Santee State Park. We love waterfront campsites.

We also camped in a hospital parking lot for one night. It’s nice to have a place of our own to relax in between patient visits.
And we also spent some time with Anne’s brother in Georgia, including a visit to the award winning Christmas light show at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens.

The goddess fountain is decorated with flowers in the summer, but was beautifully decorated with lights for the show.
The artists at the garden are very talented with light sculptures such as these birds…
… and these butterflies.
Now we are back at Gulf State Park in Alabama for Christmas.
On our way to Gulf Shores we always try to stop at Warehouse Market and Bakery in Atmore, AL to stock up. That’s the only place we have found the Conecuh sausage rolls, so we bought a dozen (and a few other goodies).
