Monday, June 22

6:39 a.m. - The rain has stopped...finally.  The rain started around 8 a.m. yesterday, and it honestly lasted about 11 hours.  My idea was to leave Haven Hills early, and then hopefully get to Loud Thunder early in order to avoid the heavy rain.  I called the Loud Thunder office, and Sawyer was working, so he told me the campsite was open and I could come early.  So I loaded up the camper and headed to the campsite.  It was light rain, but it eventually got much heavier, so getting to Loud Thunder by around 9:30 a.m. was good.  The rest of the day was pretty much spent indoors - lots of MeTV, but I did get outside under the awning during the light rain to cook up the steaks we had brought, so at least we had a good supper.  Around 11 a.m., Amber and I headed to Shivers and got a sandwich and some ice cream for mom and dad to see dad for Father's Day.  Of course, I got some ice cream too.  And just after that visit, Amber and I made our first trip to Shawn's to check on his house.  He's got a problem of a leak in the basement during heavy rain events.  During that check it was fine, but I went back later in the afternoon, and it was a bigger problem.  I needed to move some things around and adjust the funnel he has rigged up, as well as dry up some water.  

Today I have some odd stuff to accomplish.  I'm not sure of the order of the day, but I need to get some firewood, check on Shawn's house, check on our house and feed Bella, and make a trip to Aledo for some camping supplies and water.  

One other thing that happened last night that was the highlight was that Chase contacted me.  I honestly had hoped that he would attempt to reach out for Father's Day.  I hope to see him sometime this week while I take some days off - even if it is just a quick visit to see him.
