Mr James Turner put together a building called a camp in Maine. The camp location is special. The various buildings serve their purposes. Two flat roofs on the residence building may be subject to a collapse from excessive snow. I have been the recent laborer responsible to prevent collapse.
That means a 113 mile drive one way, various hours of shoveling and a drive back home. In the Maine summer the camp is home.

Clean snow off a flat roof.
Feb 16, 2019 my blog mentioned less snow depth than expected. This snow season I shoveled two days ago.
February 25, 2020. Depth on the front porch was near 22inches. Obvious layers of snow meant about six to eight separate snowfalls.
Today's storm had a radar pattern of rain mixed with snow. Shall I pray for only one additional storm?

Gathering of neighborhood.
She said we need gatherings.
A newsletter, a plan and a core of people made it happen. Fun time for all.

Growing up family vacations.
I only recall one out of state vacation.
Dad bought a 1955 Oldsmobile hardtop. We then traveled to Utah to visit with a cousin of my mother.
Six people in a car with no air conditioning traveling before the Interstate system existed. On the return we went to Mt. Rushmore. That was it.
Years later with wife and sons we lived in a number of states and traveled to Maine often. We did not travel out of the United States other than passing through Canada.
Now third generation son and family have traveled so often details of place and year are fuzzy at times.

Our Texas loop - To and from Padre Island
We now have seen eastern portions of Texas. Meeting in west Texas nearly fifty years ago, we heard about humidity in East Texas.
Tonight will be our fourth night in the Corpus Christi, Victoria and Galveston/Houston vicinity.
At the coast humidity and windy conditions prevail.
An all afternoon temperature yesterday of eighty degrees was pleasent. No mosquitos, no knats or black flies just warmth.
