After being back in Virginia for about a week the Big A Bus headed out again on Thursday to American Hertiage Campground in Williamsburg, Va. for the first official campout of the season with the Old Dominion Cardinals Good Sam Chapter. We have had a wonderful weekend with 13 rigs, 28 people and LOTS of good food.
Madison, our granddaughter came down on Friday afternoon with the Welfords, so she could be with us for the weekend. The weather was good Thursday and Friday until around 8 pm when we got a major storm, however we had just a little rain, some thunder and lightening and a little wind. The Fredericksburg area was not so lucky. The Fawn Lake area in Spotslyvania County got hit pretty hard in spots, which led to the Welfords having to leave early Saturday morning to go home to check the damage at their place. They lost about 2 dozen trees but no damage to their house. Larry said he and friends spent all day cutting up and moving wood for themselves and neighbors.
No damage was done to Freeds house who also live in that area.
We did a lot of visiting, eating, shopping and just generally enjoying our group.
One of our members lives here in Williamsburg and works with Habitat for Humanity. Saturday was the year anniversary of the reopening of their ReStore so we all had to go and check out the bargins. Dr. Jeff and Sharon Lawrence are people Larry and I met in Dade City, Fl last winter (2012) while doing a HFH Build. They have lived in Alaska for many years before retiring to this area.
Now it is Monday morning and we have to take Madie back home ( we let her skip school today) and then we have to get back to Louisa County and think about moving into the house after being in the motorhome since January.
