Road Trip to Maine
With Three Granddaughters
Thursday, July 29
Gloria playing a game on Jana’s Picto-Chat.
Diana in the back seat. The girls exchanged seats every two hours.
Jana playing Skip-Bo on my computer. This game entertained them the whole way to Maine.
It was about lunchtime when we arrived at the chapel in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts.
Some of the lights were out on the old cross, and the new LED crosses are much brighter, so Cerwin (with the help of volunteer chaplain Warren Harthan) installed a new one.
Warren making sure the ladder is steady.
Diana making double sure it is steady.
The girls did a variety of things to entertain themselves while Cerwin worked on the cross. They took lots of pictures…
…played the chapel guitar
…tried somersaults
…walked around the exterior of the chapel
…and rejoiced when the cross was installed and we were on our way again – continually checking the GPS to see how much longer it was until we would arrive at their cousin’s house.
Chaplain George Freeman called the other day to say he was very pleased with the new cross.
When we arrived at the Myers’, Lydia was picking blackberries and babysitting Colten.
Helping Diane (our daughter) make supper.
A delicious stir-fry
A refreshing dip in the pool before going to bed.
