A Time For Rest

 Dear Friends,

After 3 months of wall-to-wall activity we are done with sorting, donating, storing, and selling our stuff and moving into our new home on wheels.   It is now a time for a rest.

We spent a few days with my brother, Gary and his friend, Nancy at her home in Mary Esther, FL on the coast west of Pensicola.   It was relaxing and refreshing.  We did the same a few days later at John's brother, Michael and wife Marna in their high rise condo in Miramar, FL about 40 miles west of Panama City on the emerald coast.  We enjoyed beach time, mini golf, pool, jacuzzi, table games, cards and just enjoying our time to relax.  Taking time to breathe and spend time in God's Word and prayer is a much needed time of R and R.   The dissapation of stress has been just the right medicine!

We are in two Facebook Groups of Christian Full-Tiime RVers and enjoying the advice and ideas.

So far our experience felt like a vacation with friends and family but next week Wednesday we embark on the beginning of our new RV lifestyle as we head toward the Atlantic then up the east coast.  Stay tuned there will be plenty to write about along the way.

We miss our Texas based friends and family already!

Please keep us in your prayers,

John and Linda

    Sounds like a good start. We have had surprisingly wet and cooler weather for July. Cut into my tennis and disc golf sessions! Barbara continues to improve with energy level and is getting around well. She can drive herself now. Here hip replacement surgery has healed very well. We never really found out what sent her to the hospital after her hip surgery. But she is for the most part, recovered. Her knee is giving her pain now, so that will be the next surgery to look forward to.

    So glad you two have gotten healthy and can go on such an adventure. Enjoy!

    warmest regards,
    Rob Parkhurst

    I did write comment but maybe I did something wrong that you didn't get it. We are doing quite well. We have thorns in our flesh but lots of roses in our life. We are very blessed in so many ways. Loved your letter and all the fun pictures. God's blessing as you continue to follow the path he has for you. Our love, Pete and Shirley

Summer Travel!

 Welcome to the Summer 2023 Edition of Weber's Chosen Odyssey! After returning from our May trip east (www.weberschosenodyssey@blogspot.com), we have loved our new setup with a full-sized SUV and a 26' Rockwood Mini-Lite with a Murphy bed and huge ourdoor kitchen!  This edition features four adventures from late June through mid August.  We were exhausted, but blessed, and did not look forward to returning to the Texas heat! 1. Inks Lake State Park, Burnet, Texas.  June 7-9.   This is a delightful state park about an hour NW of the Austin metroplex.   Great water and fun with our friends Dave and Donna Sommers and our son John and his girlfriend Kayce Rae Bryant. We love the water! Inks features a small cliff behind us.  Kids love to jump off! John's girlfriend Kayce, Linda, our friend Donna Sommers and son John Here is very nice picture of our son John and his girlfriend Kayce Rae Bryant 2.  Potters Creek Park, Canyon Lake, Texas - June 27-30 Canyon Lake is 45 minutes NW

On The Road Again 2.0

Image
Greetings Folks, It is now May 16, 2023....nearly 5 months since our last post.   We are on the road and so much has happened since last December.   This will not be a heavily detailed or long blog, but rather focusing on two big resets in our lives.  "Our vehicles" and "People and Places".  Many have prayed with us during this time,   The Lord has clearly shown us the pathway for now. Our Vehicles The Lord provided the perfect combination for our next phase.   The 25ft Rockwood Mini Lite travel trailer is highly functional, high quality and more than meets our needs while on the road, not to mention much easier to handle.  The vehicle will serve us well for as long as we spend 4-8 weeks at a time on the road.   There are many details and stories behind this "Vehicle Reset" but please know that we see how the Lord is always providing for us.    The eyes of the Lord roam to and fro through the whole earth  looking for ways to show Himself strong to those wh
