Had a rough day at work but I won’t go there.  The good news is that my son is home from college for a few days and I’m going to enjoy his time with us.  Tonight we’re watching the World Series which we always like to do since he was a little boy.  The cats seem to even enjoy his company since they won’t leave his side since he’s been home.

The girls went to a church fall festival tonight dressed as Thing 1 and Thing 2.  They looked adorable when they left the house.  I believe they would have won the costume contest if it wasn’t for the judges being related to them.

Two more days until the weekend and Halloween.  I’ve been asked to go to a local state park and do some Dutch Oven cooking for a small group.  This park does a huge trick or treating.  It’s been estimated at over 30,000 kids come to this park just for this.  My kids are excited about going and seeing all the excitement.  It’s supposed to rain about the time the trick or treating starts so I’m hoping all the kids have fun.

Although the Fourth of July is less than a week away some of the local churches are celebrating it a bit early.  One of the churches had theirs tonight and boy was it a wild celebration.  They had predicted over 2000 people to show up.  Whether or not they all showed up remains to be seen.  I passed by the complex earlier today as they were setting up and they already had several bounce houses set up and a stage being erected.  The firework show at the conclusion was awesome.  I just wished I had my camera gear already set up.  I missed capturing a lot of good images because I didn’t have my camera with me.  Oh well.  Maybe next time.

I went to the cycle shop today to look at road shoes.  OMG, I had no idea they were so expensive.  I say a couple of pair that was around $90 but they were not in my size.  In fact, none of the shoes fit me.  They’re having to order some in for me to try later on in the week.  I have such a wide foot that either they wouldn’t strap down.  If I got a pair that would strap, the shoe would be so large that my foot would slip up and down.

My LOOK pedals came in on Friday and I’m really looking forward to getting some shoes to put them on.  I can’t wait to get them on my bike and go riding.

The above picture is at a  Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) Camp located on the grounds of Oak Mt State Park located here in Alabama.  This cabin is part of this camp with was built back in the ’30’s.  In past years it has served as a church camp, a girl scout camp and a boy scout camp.  In 1976, the dining hall burnt to the ground and the camp decided not to rebuild.  Fortunately, a couple of years ago, a group of Boy Scout leaders decided to put life back into this camp and rebuild the cabins.  Through the use of Eagle projects they have rebuilt over 75 percent of all the cabins.  Although there are no plans to rebuild the dining hall, they are planning on using another large building as a smaller dining hall once it get rebuilt.
