June 2007 Newsletter
Indian Springs RV Park - Anderson, MO
Missouri is a very beautiful
state with roads that has lots of curves when you get off the interstate highway.
The campground had nice facilities with lots of big trees which made it rather
difficult to get our big rigs in some of the sites. The grandchildren of the
Griffins and the Maxwells enjoyed building campfires and catching fire flies.
Dennis and Carolyn took Raven, Skyler and Andrea on a float trip down the river
and the grandchildren had a great time. The men were standing on the bank looking
at the river when a huge sycamore tree fell with a loud crack. Talk about moving
fast - they thought they had been shot. Those attending this month's campout,
in addition to the Griffins and granddaughter Andrea, and the Maxwells and grandchildren,
Skyler and Raven, were Callahans, Marshes, Thrailkills and Tuckers. We stayed
around the camp a lot, but did manage a trip to Neosho to the Super Wal-Mart.
Anderson had one grocery store, a five-and-dime type store and the Cottoneyed
Joe restaurant where we ate Bar-B-Q and fish. We found a bakery/tea room that
made wonderful sweet rolls. On Saturday the Thrailkills looked up friends living
in the Neosho area. Our hosts, Callahans and Thrailkills, treated us with a
delicious meal of roasted turkey breast with dressing and gravy and the other
ladies furnished cranberry sauce, cheese potatoes, green bean casserole, salad,
hot bread, tea and coffee and desserts of butterscotch pudding with cream cheese
and chocolate cake. That meal would sure be worth repeating - say around the
December campout. Sunday morning the hosts served hot biscuits, sausage gravy,
honey, jelly, coffee and juice.
Dennis gave the Devotional on, "Searching".
God made us all with the capacity to love and we all search for it in different
ways, but only the acceptance and the love that comes from God can satisfy that
void.
On Sunday morning the Callahans, Thrailkills, Marshes and Tuckers dropped
by Branson for three days and enjoyed some shopping and shows. Ask Gene about
his whipped cream breakfast at Bob Evans.
BUSINESS MEETING: President Thrailkill
called the meeting to order June 9th at 6:40 p.m. Minutes approved as written.
A correction in the March newsletter - our new members are Mildred and Dennis
Boelte not Mildred and John - sorry for the goof. President Gene requested a
copy of the newsletter and a 2007 revised campout schedule be sent to the new
Hitchhiker owners, who purchased rigs from Floyd's RV, with a special invitation
to visit our campout at their convenience.
