What great news about David's "clearance." We are SO thrilled by your news! Bet you'll be glad to get on the road. Hey, up here at River Vista in Dillard, GA, which is in the NE GA mountains, the highs have been in low 80's and at night the temps have been in upper 50's to 60. We love it here now that summer has peaked and the slow cooldown starts and changing of the leaves will come in late Sept or Oct. Check out the website! Again, we are so happy and thankful for the great news!!!

(Never use the word "shocked" in a subject line unless you want to start heart palpitations!) I hope you celebrated with all of your favorite things to eat. You deserve it.

Simply amazing.<br />I didn't read all the comments like I usually do, because I wanted to get down to the comment box and say how thrilled I am for you two with this good news.<br />Because I haven't read the comments yet, I don't know if anyone has mentioned the midwest to you.

David’s is a text-book perfect case, bordering on the almost unbelievable. Truthfully, I was a bit alarmed at the notion of attempting re-hab in a Camper. If something HAD gone wrong it would have been difficult. But NOTHING went wrong. Amazing results. YAY!<br /><br />This entire story is a parable of sorts. Have faith, do the best you can and expect a perfect outcome. Sometimes you’ll get one! (It helps to have little or no personal knowledge of the disasters than “could’ve” occured ;)) I intend to take from your experience a greater faith in the positive and less fear of negative consequences. Thanks for that lesson.<br />P.S.<br />Don’t get too cocky if the WBC’s are still hovering in the low range. Stay away from crowds and kids. But for Pete’s sake, go have some fun!<br />mbznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4309293625176086078.post-7719808785688277972012-08-15T13:08:28.489-04:002012-08-15T13:08:28.489-04:00I'm sitting here with a huge smile on my face....I'm sitting here with a huge smile on my face.
