Fergus Truck Show
Cerwin and Chaplain Jake returned from Fergus, Ontario, Canada, on Monday afternoon.
Chaplain Len (right), lead chaplain at Woodstock, Ontario, was there to welcome them.

Cerwin continues to recover from his shoulder surgery in mid-June, but is very limited in what he can do. Jake had to do all the driving and most of the chapel set up.
Yesterday was the first day of therapy where Cerwin was given a weight to lift. He is now able to lift a three-pound weight.

Relaxing
Sue and Len had their display in a nearby tent.
One of the 300 beautiful rigs.
The back of his sleeper says it all.
This trucker obviously travels in the USA and Canada.
Antiques
A “serious” milk hauler
Long wheelbase and extra-long custom-made hood
Lots of chrome, stainless steel, and polished aluminum
Thousands of people enjoyed the trucks and many activities.
Jake and Cerwin had many visitors. They laughed and shared stories with some, and prayed with others. One visitor was from Croatia, and another from Holland.
Cerwin took this picture of “Mater” from Cars for our grandchildren.
A large visitor
Light show on Saturday night.
The Chapelaires sang at the Sunday morning worship service next to the chapel.
Chaplain Len shared a short meditation. Cerwin said each of the thirty chairs that were set up were filled, many were standing nearby, and others listened to the service from their campsites.
It was a rather rainy weekend, which created lots of mud.
The guys came home with great memories.
This Peterbilt pickup was one of Cerwin’s favorites.
He thinks he would like a truck like this to go for parts and supplies when building chapels.
