I have no real clear vision of our future and I don’t know what it holds, but we have been shown our next chapter; not the whole book but an exciting new chapter! This chapter wouldn’t have come with out my days of struggle in Tennessee. It is amazing to look back and see how He uses ALL things. It reminds me of Romans 8:28 “We know that in ALL things God works…”, it’s just amazing and soooo true and hope filling!
It was while we were there, during those difficult first couple of weeks, that we started looking anywhere for new jobs…. not just at www.workampingjobs.com where we had found all of our previous ones. (Chase found this new one on Indeed of all places!)
We’ve talked about management and/or owning a campground one day. At three of the spots we’ve worked, we’ve been asked to stay in a management position, but it never felt right.
And on another note, did you know Chase and I met in college at Ottawa University in Ottawa, Kansas? We are born and raised Kansans and both of our families still live in Kansas. However, our boys have never lived in Kansas………..yet.
So, without further ado, we are happy to announce we have become managers at a tiny campground just outside of Ottawa, Kansas!! We never would have dreamed this would happen but so excited it has! This next chapter is sure to be different that our last 15 months of full-time traveling but we are trusting in His ways and looking forward to all that’s in store. Spending the winter in our camper in Kansas may become more chilling than thrilling so we will be sure to keep you posted on our survival. 😉😉😉
