Activities for the week!

 We've been busy here at the camp. There is always things to keep us busy, besides all the mowing we do. But we do have time to go do some fun things too. We went to Watkins Glen to check it out. The main gorge trail was closed, but we hiked around an upper trail. The 100 year old stone bridge walkway is being reinforced, so they have added an aluminum bridge for safety.



They have made some major changes since we were there in 2010. The place where there was parking before is now all a nice walkway and park.


Since the main trail was closed, we took a different one and it was cool to look down on the trail below.







Here's some pictures of different things we've been doing.
The 'girls' cleaned the BIG commercial kitchen while the 'guys' fixed things.



We had fun planting flowers to beautify the place!

Sister Harmer, Jones and Cottam.
After we cleaned for hours, Brother & Sister Harmer made us all lunch. Bro. Harmer made some really good bread and the best cinnamon bread I've ever tasted. Better than cinnamon rolls!
Sunday afternoon we took off to go visit the Peter Whitmer Farm. The service missionaries there are the Jone's. They gave us a great tour.




In this log home, the church was officially organized and they had the first sacrament ordinance there. A very special place.
Back to working....
Painting the restroom floors.



It's still Spring here and lots of trees are in bloom. We've got some things in the garden coming up too.




This is the momma & daddy goose and their 4 babies that hatched over by the pond at the camp. We saw them on our 2 miles walk.

I'm not saying WHO got suck in the mud while mowing and had to be pulled out, but it wasn't me and it wasn't LaVerl!
