Connor lost tooth & Paddle Boarding

We went paddle boarding yesterday at the finger lake. The Worley's let us use ther paddle boards and the kids had a blast.

While boarding Connor hit his fused tooth the paddle and it came out. Some how he had it in his hand. It was already loose. a fused tooth is two teeth fused together so he has an extra baby tooth.

Anyway here is his new smile.

Finished plumbing and headed to Columbia, SC

Finished the plumbing at the cabin today. We ran all new plumbing and installed a new hot water heater. Now all we have to do is insulate the floor under the cabin and put up the plywood to re-seal it.

Now we are in Columbia, SC for an interview that I have tomorrow. The job would be in either Charlotte or Greenville with a possible future office in Asheville which would be awesome.

Camping

We went camping at Deep Creek Campground just outside Bryson City in the National Park. We had a great couple of days. First night we had rain so we ended up eating dinner at 3:30pm and the cookies for dessert in tent.

Next day was beautiful so we got some tubing in on the creek. The kids managed to carry their tubes up the path four times.
