Well today was a most interesting day. We now have answers regarding my mom and her house. We now know that we are taking another marathon road trip. And for the first time since we have been on the road our neighbors called the cops on us for – are you ready for this – encroachment.
We finally found out that my mom’s house sustained substantial damage. The roof caved in over her bedroom, the rest of the shingles on the roof are all gone, the house was flooded to the point that the floors are all buckled and of course the carpets are soaked. In so many words at this point it is unlivable. But my mom is my mom and she has declared please fix my house so I can go home. So we’re all going to New Bern this week to see what can be done to make it livable once again. Until it is my mom will be living with my sister in PA.
Encroachment. Our neighbors with the million dollar rig called the police on us because they claimed we were over the property line with our awning and on their site. They also claimed our awning put a scratch on the bumper of their car which is parked in front of their rig. I have yet to figure out how an awning which is several feet in the air can put a scratch so small you can’t see it without a magnifying glass on the bumper of their car. But, it takes all kinds to make the world go round. So the police came, listened, laughed and walked away. And we moved. Don’t need neighbors like that. This is definitely a first for us. And another listen learned, stay away from those with the high priced rigs.
That’s it then. Definitely a different kind of day for us. We’re now packing up for another road trip in the car. Probably no blog for several days since we’ll be in an area with no electricity.
As always, if you are coming to the end of your day with concerns and worries, let me suggest that you turn them over to God. After all, He is going to be up all night so why not let him handle them for you.
Time now for our evening prayers and eventually some shut-eye. Till tomorrow.

Your Mom is on our Prayer list at church. Hope she will be able to accept the verdict on her home. Well, that is a first by claiming a property line encroachment. Sounds like these people need to get off the road, build themselves a place surrounded by a moat. The Cops had a story to share with fellow officers that day. 😂😂😂 Have a safe trip and hug your Mom for us.
