Chris, Josiah, Joel and myself have been at Mike and Pam's for the week. It has been a week of catching up with our friends and a busy week for them as from Thursday they had family staying until Monday morning.
Josiah has doing some been training but the weather is playing havic with the track. Joel has been burning around on a Honda CRF50. Chris has been working with Josiah and doing bike maintenance. I have been doing washing and running here and there getting jobs done.
The highlight for the week was shooting Mike's rifle (303). We all had a go. Joel was the keenest but had a little help from Mike and Chris (Mike to aim/hold and Chris to block his ears). The rifle was real loud and kicked like a mule.
Sarah spent another week with the Hempens. They went to a camp in San Antonio in Texas. She had a blast and was very sad to say goodbye to them.
Steve and Beth Crow helped with the pick up of Sarah as they picked her up from the Hempens as they came through Dallas on Saturday night. Then on Sunday we drove from Arkansas to Mt Pleasant Texas where we meet Steve and Beth for lunch and a catch up. Steve and Beth came from Plano (near Dallas) to pastor at our church in NZ for 3 years and returned to their home land (USA) last year.
This week will be much the same. Then next week we will head to Oklahoma City to take Chris, Sarah and Joel to the airport to return home. Then Josiah and I go to Ponca City to race in the NMA Grand National. We are excited to catch up with Andy, Lee, Olly and Laura. Olly will also be racing at Ponca.
Sounds like you're having a lot of fun! It's great that you got to catch up with Steve and Beth too!
