First of all, Ezra is doing pretty well with his arm. But you know how bad it itches inside the cast, though, so it's beyond bugging him. Poor guy. But he's managing. He's having to learn how to do everything with his left hand, which is pretty awkward, but he's getting it. 5 weeks to go and counting! :)
Judah finally got to golf once this week on a course called a pasture course. And they didn't name it that for nothing. It is a pasture - literally. But he doesn't care. Just so he's out hitting the balls around, he's a happy camper. He'll take his chipper and hit around on the grassy places at the RV park here. Obsessed, eh? It's a good obsessed though, I think. And we are now whiffle ball-less and soccer ball-less. Noah hit the whiffle just a little too hard and smashed it in half. Who is he anyway, Derek Jeter?? As for the soccer ball, another RV ran right over ours and popped it good. Man, these RV parks can be dangerous!
Well, we finally traded our little hovel in for, well, a bigger hovel. The 'new' trailer is the same year as our old one, this one is just a little longer and has a slide-out. So, we feel like we're living large! We do not have to walk around and over India's books, our computers and their cords, the laundry basket, everyone's shoes and each other. And we each have a place to sit when we eat!! Pretty much everything has a place now - including Judah, who is thrilled to be sleeping in a 'bed' after a month and a half of sleeping on the floor!! This RV has a couch - imagine that - which is actually a futon/bed. It sure is nice to have just a little bit more room - I gotta tell ya.
Well, we we're a little busy this week it seemed, with school and work, and the pickup and the trailer stuff and we didn't get to go out and see the sites like we wanted. India took another college test and passed well. She's got 51 credits now, so she's happy about that. We did get to pick blueberries and that was fantastic. They were wonderful and at a dollar a pound (I know!) you can't beat that, can you? We love picking our own fruit. It is so fun to be out in the orchard and getting everything so fresh. And the taste is beyond fabulous, you can't even compare it to store bought. That's yet another reason why we're drawn to this region. Good - REALLY REALLY GOOD food. And you know - we love to eat, so it's great!
Better run - we're off to the Olympic Peninsula today - God willing. We'll see how the 'new' truck pulls the 'new' trailer. The truck is a loud beast, compared to our Suburban. You feel like you're driving a semi. At least I do. Judah decided to name it 'Delores', much to Ezra's and Noah's objections. I love it. Now they're working on a name for the trailer. Are trailers considered masculine or feminine? Whatever, I'll keep you posted. :)
Blessings,
jill and all
