I am on a roll

The reason say this is today the inter net is working well and I can put tings on the blog with out waiting forever. I am not sure if it is the computer or that? All I know is today it is working correctly. This make me very happy. I hope after this to get to do some my e mails.
You can see that we are moving forward with cleaning up this place but tings keep on breaking still so I still have some thing to do each day.
I hope today to work on the John Deere. It only runs for about 3 minutes and then dies. I know it is the fuel problem. The reason I say this is using Starting fluid it will keep running. I have changed the filter and put in in line pump and pretty much cleaned and make sure fuel is coming up to the injector pump. I got to running two days ago and then,blew a hyd line now. The line is one of the metal ones and I just can not get it to it easy. It just keeps breaking down. I really am looking forward in seeing Bob and Faye in Jan to hopefully fix every thing and I can take a vacation. We will see what happens.
Tomorrow we will be having a broad meeting here and my prayer is that they see what we need and maybe get us some more help with our funds.

A little reapir here and there




Our train is back up



See how a little sand and rock can make this palce look good.

It is so good to see family get togethers

Last Friday afternoon, Kevin and I invited his sister Vanessa and her boy friend Anthony and their child. To come over to the Camp and enjoy some good cooking (Kevin did it) and just play around a little. Vanessa is Kevin's older sister, not sure how much more? He has one more a little older, Pebbles. She has two children. She has been living in Free Port with her dad. But I know that this day was one that Kevin will not forget. He talks about his family much. The sad part is, his younger sisters still live at home with their mom. We have called, Kevin's mom (Kim) many times to ask if we can come over and take the girls out to the beach or what ever. Kim tells Kevin, no they have work to do around the farm that they live at. I will try this week to call and see, maybe she will say yes this time. I know Kevin misses his sister very much. They are a little younger than him. But they still are his sisters and we will see what happens this week-end? Would love to get them all together plus their mom. Maybe one of these days that could happen.
By looking at the food, you surly can see it was not my fixes? Kevin cooked up 5 chicken halves and stuffing and mash potatos, plus some mixed veggies. Kevin loves to cook and this just gives him a chance to show how our Lord has blessed him and shown favor too. I am very blessed to have a son like him and proud too.
This last Friday was our day off, reason it is called Discovery Day. Columbus Day in the states. They really don't like Columbus Day, so they make up their own holiday.
Oh the rest of this week, Kevin has off from school. Today Wednesday is a Fun Day, so he wants to stay around and help us at the Centre. Then Thursday and Friday is Med Terms. Med Terms to me meet, testing? Which means two more days off. I just don't get it. The school system here is more for days off than on. Now maybe we can figure out why our school grade (avg) is only a D. Kevin has been doing well there but I still have not meet his teachers. We had a PTA meeting last month and it went so long that we could not stay after to talk with them. I hope maybe this next week to stop in and ask to talk with them. Kevin is showing me some great grades, but he never has home work? Please keep him in prayers, I really want him to do well. One reason is I didn't do well in school and wish I could go back and do my best. Not just be able to pass.

You can see how the animals are watching them work.


Yes the Calvary has arived.

Yesterday morning a group of 9 folks cam in form Fort Lauderdale,Fl. They have come to give us a helping hand or two. After lunch we started to working on different projects. The guys took off the old roof and replace plywood on the Pig Pen. Remember the tree that fell on it and broke up the roof? The girls were pressure washing the stalls. Around 7pm we finished up and got back the Camp and had a nice dinner pizza and a good salad.
Today our plan is, finish up the roof and the girls to paint all of the stalls. We here at ALC are blessed to see helpers and willingness to do what ever is needed. I hope to get the roof and ad least on stall painted. Then this afternoon they are going over to Hatiation camp and just give out some hot dogs and chips. I hope to take some pictures then and share them with you later on. My prayer for every group that comes here, that they are blessed and know that they were used by God to do His work.

We have some help
