Happy Graduation Rachel 6/19/10

Where does the time go? It seems like only yesterday that Rachel joined our extended family and here she was graduating high school. They say "Time Flies When You're Having Fun." And we were having fun. We decided to make it a weekend trip and took the motorhome. Life is good when you travel in a rolling home. All the modern conveniences right at your fingertips. That weekend we purchesed our first DSLR camera. A Cannon Rebel. It worked really well even though I could only figure out the automatic portion of it. So many videos to watch to learn how to operate this camera to its maximum.

We stayed at Scotrun Campground, an Outdoor World property located near The Crossings in PA. It's a smaller campground but half-way between our house and my sister-in-laws. They have a beautiful swimming pool area but the water is COLD! I think that is because it is spring fed water and they don't heat it.

On Saturday we drove up to the Scranton area for our neices graduation party. The sun was out in full force and it was HOT! My sister-in-law, Lisa, is not the best at giving directions so needless to say we passed up the turn for the park. After turning around, we almost missed it again. Things can get so confusing out in the country. We finally arrived and what an adorable city park. They had a pavillion with picnic tables and a charcoal grill next to a babbling brook, swingsets and a jungle gym for the kids to play on. The best part was all the good food. Len was the "unofficial" griller and I was the photographer. It was a great day and Rachel received many gifts and lots of greenbacks.

Rachel, you have grown up to be a beautiful young lady. May your future be as bright as you are. Happy Graduation.
