Vacation -- Day One















On Saturday, June 14, 2008 we loaded up at 5am and drove to Tifton Georgia. We then loaded up everything into WF and Ms. Linda's brand new camper and all piled into their SUV. Along for the fun was Papa Tince. As you can tell by the pics, everyone was excited. We were well on our way before noon to drive down I75 to Orlando, Florida. We did stop a couple of times including a picnic lunch at a rest area. It is nice to travel with a camper because could fix our picnic right there in the camper. Ms. Linda had cooked a ham early that morning so we could have real ham sandwiches. We arrived at Turkey Lake in Orlando around 4 pm. While WF and Ms. Linda could get the camper situated into a spot, Chris and I took the kids to the swings to play. After playing for about 10 minutes, the kids were ready to walk around the lake. By the time we walked back to the camper, everyone was arriving for our nephew Nate's birthday. We were giving Nate and his friend Rebecca a birthday party. Nate was turning 2 and I believe that Rebecca was turning 4. All the kids attending had a blast writing on a neighboring parking pad with sidewalk chalk. By the time the party was winding down, the stars were shining bright in the sky and it was bedtime.
