Catching Up Again

Saturday, December 13, 2025

Hello everyone.  Seems it’s been over a month since we last gave you an update.  We have been here, there and everywhere and kept thinking we would get a post uploaded but it just hasn’t happened.  Sorry.  What follows is a synopsis of what’s been going on with us. 

We left our work in Ashville and spent five days in Lexington, KY with some Impact Maker friends at the Kentucky Horse Park.  We met some new friends, human and animal (beautiful horses) in a beautiful setting.

From Kentucky, we went to a Switch Crew Founders Club (SCFC) event at Talona Ridge RV Resort in Elijay, Georgia.  We love Talona Ridge and enjoyed more time with friends.  It was more than just fun as we spent a good deal of time planning the next 12-18 months for the organization.

From there we returned to Alabama for a little time at our home church and Camp Sumatanga and doctor and dental appointments.  We finally got to meet our new pastor, Mark Puckett, in person.  So thankful for him and always thankful for time with our Lester Memorial family.

After a brief week in Alabama we were back at Talona for a gathering of other friends and YouTube influencers, Cindy and Harold Strange and family.  It was another fun time of renewing friendships packed in three days.

Then it was time to return to Randy and Debra’s home in Johnston, SC.  We went to Gaffney, SC for two days for Fred’s annual checkup.  Thankfully, no problems were found and we spent the remainder of our time enjoying catching up with our family.  Debra and Anne enjoy preparing lots of good food for the family Thanksgiving and Max and Randy always have projects to complete.  It was nice to have some time to just relax. 

Randy’s new grapple sure makes cleaning up trees easier.

We are so very thankful for the time we have had with friends and family over the last several months.  We still have more of you to see and we will be working on that in 2026.  We are currently in Gulf Shores, AL and will try to keep things more up to date.  May God Bless You All and keep you safe!
