" Wacky Raft Race " on the Hudson

Second Place

Rednecks of Earlton ( make this one larger--unbelievable)

The Winners Yeah #1

What fun, for those who worked so hard. There were amazing rafts on the river this morning.

Beau, just loves all the commotion that goes on with these events.

Early in the AM, there he is watching all the rafts get ready to start from Athens to Catskill point.

The sun was sooo hot, I just could not imagine physically paddeling down the river in that heat.

But, many of them did !! ( Some gave up)

It is so amazing at the creativity of the rafts involved.

Pipes, rowing machines, netting ect, ect.

The river was so busy, everyone that had a boat was out to see the race.

All along the river people were sitting on lounge chairs just waiting for the rafts to make there way to the point,where they were at!

Hope you enjoy the pictures =)

Time with the Eichers

Erin "The Photographer"

My vacation is over,,,but we are well rested! Erin,Rob,Rich and Lynda treated us like royalty.

(What a beautiful house they live in). We were received with love and blessed by every member of Rob's family.

Laura ( Rob's sister ) brought Gabrielle over her house for an evening! Can you imagine..treating her like family..this family live their life in LOVE!

I was surrounded by flowers,( lynda you have a gift!) bison,rabbits,chickens,roosters,fields of

fresh vegtables and recently slaughter beef and chicken =(***. What a differant life.

Bram has proved to be a hunter and a farm boy! Rich ( Robs father) has taught Bram so much..

that I think they are attached at the hip! ( He is a little, RICH )

Collecting eggs every morning and picking fresh veggies in the evening!

Rob and Erin are at peace where God has brought them too!

They are living in peace and tranquility for now. I'm sure when their little daughter arrives

all this will go into full gear. Erin waits, expectantly for the call and for her home to be reclaimed.

How wonderful that will be!

For now Erin has taken up photography. She is really patient and creative.

Some of her clients are a pain in the neck ( WHO ME??NEVER )

She has a gift and is going forth with this talent. I know she is excited about her future.

I think this is only the beginning of a new career.

Rob, is a godly man. He lives his faith openly, and encourages me whenever I am around him.

He's real and down to earth. His heart is sold out to JESUS !! How blessed we are to have him as a son in law.

The days went by fast..and it has been back to work..but I had a wonderful time in Indiana.

Thank you soo much, we love you all tooo much xxxoo
