Saying Goodbye


Tears of sadness, joy, gratitude, and a host of other emotions flowed as we said goodbye to everyone at Sweetwater KOA. Last night the owners, Chuck and Sandy, sat around the campfire with us. We reminisced over the funny and sad KOA happenings as well as world events, sharing our thoughts and opinions. Before we disbanded for the evening, Chuck said a prayer over us. We have come to love these two immeasurably in our short time here.

As we leave, a part of our heart remains. In two and a half months we have not only earned our Workamper badge, but gained so much more. We will miss the beautiful surroundings, our fellow Workampers, the kids who shared their time with us, getting to know some of the guests, and most of all the Tufts. But we take with us the most wonderful memories. God blessed us with an experience far more incredible than we could have hoped for.
