Two week update on being owners of Welcome Station RV Park

Image
Today marks two weeks since our lifestyle change.  It's been a whirlwind!  Mostly a fun one, even with the long hours and hard work.  Steve is handling the phone and parking and I am learning the ropes of running a business using Quickbooks and not having much of an office!  The former owner left behind a couple of old chairs and tables, a tv cart, a small bookshelf and voila, an office!  The house was not clean, and is still in the process of becoming so but one of the renters has helped me and we've had some great times and she and her hubby have played games with us. (always a favorite of ours)  The first Sunday, we were swamped and overwhelmed and wanted to get to church but didn't make it and then that evening a fellow arrived, wanting to know if anyone played country or Gospel guitar!  Well, right there and then we had our first "house concert" in our humble abode and  we enjoyed his playing!  I did pretty well keeping up with him on Gospel songs I h

Really, I still don't believe it!

Life ....difficult and sad times.....blessings.....dreams fulfilled.....The Lord's leading.....something SOOO different! These past weeks have been such a whirlwind.  If I might have your attention, sit and relax and just read about it all here while I share with you.  Thanks...make yourself comfortable.  If your're one of our friends, who know us well, this will be an interesting story!!! Rewind to the middle of July when we are with our Wyoming friends where we spend a month a year....and we are enjoying a week long camp out with them....Such an idyllic spot and great weather and good company and fun! We had enjoyed some wonderful times around a campfire with their son, Ryan.... And the next morning he left to go to work (sheriff) .....but he returned in about 20 minutes saying that  he had been contacted that Steve's dad was in the hospital and that we should call our daughter immediately.  Steve called and his dad was not doing well, had been

Divine Appointment

I'm still in tears as I write this.. God's hand is with us who know  Jesus... It is so evident. We pulled in to a scenic overlook rest area to change drivers as my turn for driving  was over.  I was filing my nails when a gentleman said,  "Excuse me, did you see a gray pickup stop here?"   I said,  "No."  the man paused and looked sad and upset at the same time and then  He  said. "We'll,  I've lost my keys."  I looked at his truck. It is a brand new Dodge Ram four doors, still with paper tags. I tell him he's asked the expert in losing keys and I walk over to help him. He seems embarrassed and I ask him what was the first thing he did when he got out. He said he already had checked in the bathroom.  I walk to the other side of the truck as I keep asking where he had looked.  I look into his truck and on the dash is a Bible. And I smile. "Hello fellow Believer!" I say.  He stops and looks at me as he is walking around the tru

Sea Lion Delight!

While visiting the Pismo Beach area we are lunch at Fat Csts at the San Luis port. Afterwards Steve and I walked out to the per. We were rewarded with some sea lions. Their barking and playing put smiles on our faces for sure! Enjoy the pics! Lol...the pelican and seagull are a bonus...don't want to leave out the birds.

The Oaks Camp and Conference Center MMAP Project #1

It has been heard through the grapevine....that an update is wanted for the O'Bosky's blog! We have, for the past three weeks, been at The Oaks Camp and Conference Center near Lancaster, California.  It is a super wonderful Christian camp which is part of World Impact.  The staff was a blessing and were so very friendly!  We found we were blessed and refreshed as we blessed them.  Traveling with a purpose...doesn't get better than this!  Steve and I are a part of MMAP (Mobile Missionary Assistance Program)  Here are a few pics of what happened while we were there.  These are the 5 men of this project.  A great time was had by all as they loved and served the Lord helping out on different projects.   Smitty and Steve helped to fix the human foos ball game.  The ladies of the project on a walk to get some surplus produce. Cold and windy most of the time while we were here.   We are now traveling with our golf cart, Pepe the Mule!   The Mappers parked together

GUIDANI TRAIL near Kartchner Caverns

Image
The landscape is dry and covered with Mesquite. The tufts of grass Edgewater show the signs of a winter rain. It is chilly here with an altitude of 4600 feet. I choose the trail less traveled, the Guidani trail in the forest which just borders the state park with the fabulous caves . It is an easy walk until the climb to the top. Today I return to the wash to take a few pics.
