Last month we went camping at Grindstone Campground in VA.  Once we got off the major highways, the scenery was BEAUTIFUL!  Mountains, rolling hills, picture perfect rivers and streams, it was lovely!  If I wasn't the one driving, I would have taken lots of pics on the way up.  I found lots of places where I was saying to myself "I could live here".  Makes me even more determined to move to Asheville some day...Or Washington State!

The camping group was a pretty good size, but due to threats of rain, many cancelled :(  We still had fun anyways, and I even remembered to take a few pictures.  None of them are great, but hey, at least I remembered to use it a few times, even though I lost my camera 20 times every day.

We had the visit of the CO and his wife last week.  It was a very special treat!  Kenna and I made it to every meeting for service and we enjoyed working with sister CO twice!  Hubby took a "slick" day on Friday and joined us for the day.  Everyday we had 50+ meet for service and on Saturday, we had over 100!  I told them that they really brought the heat because every day it was over 90 degrees...every inch of me was sweating!  KennaKat was quite the trooper as she endured day after day with me.  The talks were so encouraging and uplifting.  Jehovah knows just how to give us our food at the proper time.  My goal is to Regular Pioneer and Brother CO gave me just the encouragement that I needed.  Hubby gave an amazingly awesome talk Tuesday night, everyone is still saying "wow!"  He gives great talks and this one was hands down the best one yet!  I finally made it to a Pioneer meeting on Saturday.  Since the new arrangement of letting the Auxilary ones sit in on half the talk, I've missed every.single.one.  I'm always sick.  This time I was determined to make it, even if I had to crawl in on my hands and knees!
