This could be your family's best vacation ever!
Thank you for a splendid family vacation. There were so many family friendly thoughtful touches. With the great children's books, comics, games, family videos, and nature books. There were even nets to catch interesting flying creatures. We loved the crystal clear river front area. It was great for fishing and finding interesting rocks. We came home with the best catfish, fried and ate it. This was the first time we had ever eaten catfish, they were really good.
Thank you for sharing your blackberry bramble with us. Nothing is as delicious as freshly picked berries with sugar and milk. This is especially true when you endured August heat, the bees, and a multitude of thorn scratches all over you hands and arms to get the berries. It brought back memories from my childhood on the farm in Iowa. When I was in Iowa however, I wore a long sleeved shirt and spared my arms.
The children thoroughly enjoyed your collection of dress up items. The cowboy boots and the gun were the biggest hits.
Your serene setting was inspirational for time with the Lord. We praised him for his creation. The photography was great too. Keep serving the Lord in this way. It is a blessing.
Tom, Brenda, Paige, Brooke and Erica
I enjoyed fishing in the creeks, blackberry picking and riding down the Black river on our pink tube. I also enjoyed Johnson Shut-Ins and Elephant Rocks.
Paige
I liked the comic books, swimming in the creek, and playing cards.
Brooke
My favorite things were Elephant Rocks Park and seeing dad cut up the catfish.
