Doug's Adventures in the Smoky Mountains with the Navigators

Doug spent two months in Gatlinburg TN this summer working at Dollywood and studying with the Navigators.  He had lots of financial and prayer support from friends and family.  It was an awesome experience and he came home more mature and more considerate of others. Here are some pictures that capture some of his experiences.  To all of you who helped, thank you so much!

Doug' shared a room with three other fellows

Doug and BAMA friends.

Alas, we have no pictures of his Dollywood uniform, a bright green shirt, shorts and hat!
He enjoyed his job of directing parking and being the voice of the tram transporting guests into the park.

New School Year-Doug's last

I thought I had posted this, but it went to draft. Love the pictures so I posted it two years later!



Doug is dancing with the Dazzlers at Spain Park! School starts on Aug 12th here and I have been very, very busy getting ready. Last week was registration and this week we are doing a breakfast for the new teachers. I know that the next nine months will go by way too fast. I'm praying that we'll take the time to enjoy every minute. The picture on the left is from first grade.  Who knew what a handsome fellow he would grow up to be.


We are going to U. of Alabama to tour the campus on Friday, we went to UWF, my old alma mater back in May. It is so exciting to see him begin this journey into what his life will become.
