Memorial Day Weekend






Memorial Day is here and the weekend is winding down. All the campers will be packing up and heading home this morning. It has been a good weekend.

Had a great cookout Saturday. The whole campground ate and had a good time visiting with each other. The campgrounds furnished all the meats and table wear and most campers brought a passing dish. As always lots of good food and lots of B.S. flying around. We had garbage can turkeys and barbecued chicken quarters. Took a few pics to share with you all. One pic is of the garbage cans the turkeys were cooked in. A pic of the turkeys right after we took them out of the cans. A pic of the chefs at the grills cooking the chicken quarters. A pic of the chow line and all the food on the table and finally a pic of all enjoying the food.

A prayer was said before we started eating and part of it was thanking our troops past and present for their sacrifices for our freedom.

I hope everyone remembers what this holiday is all about as I for one feel it is one of the most important we have. We have 2 sons in the military fighting for our freedom and are very proud of them for the selfishness they give of themselves. They both spend A LOT OF TIME AWAY from their families for us to have the freedom we take for granted every day. And I would also like everyone to think of the courageous ones at home alone taking care of the family while they are gone. It is a tougher job than I have ever had or will have so THANK YOU LEVI AND LESTER AND ALL THE MEMBERS OF OUR ARMED SERVICES AND THE FAMILIES BEHIND THEM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
