John and I participated in a Care-a-Vaners work project at Mt. Shasta UMC Camp last September. We joined with 12 other retired United Methodists with our RVs for a week in the beautiful area of Mt. Shasta City. This was our first experience with Care-a-Vaners, but it won't be our last. Our main project was to close the camp up for winter. Most of us women took on the job of splitting wood for the caretaker's cabin during the winter, as well as guests who use the lodge. John and the other men loaded the logs from the mountainsides and dumped them by our log splitter. John also tackled other projects -- adding on to their tool shed, and organizing the tools, as well as running lines for the water pumps. We had a great time. We spent several days afterwards at Lake Siskiyou campground -- one of our favorite campsites. Beautiful weather; beautiful scenery.
