This morning it was 81 degrees when
Scout got his first walk at about 6:30. Certainly didn't cool off
enough last night and the air conditioner had to run a lot during the
night. However, shortly after Scout's walk it started raining and by
8:30 it was 75 degrees. That's better. Unfortunately, it did go
back up into the mid-80's this afternoon. We still get the Rapid
City (Storm Mountain) forecast and they have a winter storm warning
for tomorrow. They may get 3 inches of wet heavy snow and will have
a low of 28 tomorrow night. Wow – we left a week too early!
However, that could be a very damaging snow because the trees still
have their leaves and some branches may come down with the weight of
the snow. We will be praying for our friends there. Speaking of
Storm Mountain, we met some people here that live very close to there
and who will be leading a NOMADS work project there in a few weeks.
It's fun to meet all these people. Wish it wasn't so far away. We
would love to go back with a team and do some more work at Storm
Mountain Center.
We had daily devotion at 7:00 am and
our guest pastor was again very good. We have been blessed with
really good speakers. After devotion it was pancake breakfast. They
know how to make a good pancake here at the KOA. (And the price is
right – $0.00) It was then time for some singing and preaching
before we had another business meeting. The remainder of the day was
filled with seminars on various topics such as team leadership, vinyl
siding installation, writing and publishing a book, home inspections
for required repairs, and electrical wiring. Tonight was the pot
luck dinner and we took smothered slow-cooker pork chops. All the
food was good, so of course we ate too much. There was also
entertainment after dinner by “Irish Band” There was some toe
tapping, clapping, and a little dancing, People seemed to be having
a good time.

Tomorrow there is more of the same,
except it is supposed to be a little cooler. We sure hope so.
