A Trip to North Caicos

A dear friend of ours paid for us to go to North Caicos for campmeeting. We are so thankful to her for this. We really needed this little break and refreshment. The services we great! We felt God's presence, enjoyed the singing, etc. It rained off and on for most of the time we were there, but need the rain, so we are thankful for the rain.

Blogger put the pictures in how it wanted so I'm sorry for the way the pictures are out of order. We were able to go across the "bridge" to Middle Caicos one day to look around over there. This was the first time that Trevor, Tanner, Alexis and I have seen that island. It is very nice over there. Not many people and very quiet.


Here is as far as we could drive on Middle Caicos. This is looking out towards the south I guess.


At the very end of Middle where the road ended and the water began. Someone has built this little shelter with a swing. The kids loved it. They had so much fun swinging on this.



Trevor's turn.

Here are all of the kids at the end of the road on Middle Caicos.

The singers this year at camp here are The Lopers from Hobe Sound. We got to know them a little while staying on North. My kids loved them. They had loads of fun with them.

Bro. Stetler was the evangelist. We enjoyed his sermons, they touched our hearts. Everyone got to hear many stories from him around the table at meal time. Tyler really enjoyed this.

Our "Boss" Bro. Frank Vaughn. We always enjoy when he comes down to visit.

Tim looking out at the ocean in Middle. Very handsome man!!!

Hurricane Ike still shows his damage. This is part of the bridge that you go across from North to Middle. They made this bridge by dumping rocks into the ocean and then putting up some concrete barriers, blacktop, etc. When the hurricane came through it tore up the road. It just picked up the blacktop and put it beside the road. It is a sight to see.

Here is a view of the bridge.

Alexis taking her turn on the swing.

Tyler taking his turn.

Same picture again. Sorry!!

North and Middle have a lot of trees.

This is a well that people use to get their water out of. Some Haitians may still use it today.

This is the ferry that we rode on from Provo to North Caicos.

Our friend had a car for us to borrow while we were there. The only thing was that the drivers seat is on the right side of the car. Wow!! That was confusing. I've not driven like that before. WE had a lot of laughs. Everything was backwards. I would try to turn on my turn signal and end up turning on the windshield wipers. My kids would laugh and laugh. Good thing the pedals were the same though. That would have been awful if they were switched up also!!!

I've figured it out and we are driving down the road.
