Go South My Children!!
2 Mac 2023, New Zealand
At long last Waymaker is on its way. This new pilgrimage is through the South Island. "Lord, may Your will be fulfilled through us as we go."

Over the past month we have had "Waymaker" decals put on the front and rear of her, the 40,000km service oil and filters done, front window stone ships delt to, and the Rotorua RV Centre repaired a hole in the top rear corner of the roof (ooops), repair to a blind, put the legs back into the side shader, plus a few other small jobs.

In an hour we leave to have her detailed and waxed, then we start our journey south.
We cross to Picton on the 1pm sailing on the 11th... we have no idea where we are going, or over the next 3-4months what adventures we will have with Him. What we do know is our cry.. "here we are Lord, use us!" It is all Up2Him.

Many many thanks to Terry, Raewyn, and staff at Keswick Christian Camp Rotorua for accomodating us, to our Pastor's JP and Karen Metcalf of Rotorua C3 in covering us and standing with us, Tracey for just being there when needed, and our many wonderful friends who have visited, dined, advised us, and prayed for us... a huge "thank you!"Baca lagi

We are now parked up at Keswick Camp again. Back in town to catch up with old friends, appointments, and to visit our home church. We will also need to get through to Tauranga to visit family, have a few changes made to Waymaker, and have her spruced up for our next trip out.
Our trip is over .... roll on our next one in three weeks......Baca lagi

Saftey in Delay.
30 Januari 2023, New Zealand ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C
We have decided to spend and extra day at the NZMCA camp in Marton due to the impending bad weather where we are heading.. Rotorua & Tauranga. Here we are free from the rain and high wind. Here we can attand to business safely.. we can head north tomorrow.
The social life in this camp is remarkable. People we have only known for a few days suddenly have become "great" friends for-ever!! All very strange.
The camp itself is just a stroll through a beautiful historic park to the town centre. And there we once again had a wonderful God moment with an eldery man preaching on the main street. Holy Spirit time once more!!
Off tomorrow bright and early for Turangi then Rotorua and Tauranga on Thursday.Baca lagi

What a Great Day, Great Time
28 Januari 2023, New Zealand ⋅ 🌩️ 20 °C
We spent the weekend with the Wave Church Family of Opunake and what a wonderful weekend it was. We even we made time to go to Everbodies Theater on Friday night with Bill and Kerry to watch Otto.. a strange but most enjoyable move. I ended up watching the movie in a lazyboy chair with my feet up. (a first) while Christine was on the couch with Kerry.
This morning was a gas bottle filled, and dump station call, and then the the start of our plodding back to Rotorua and Tauranga.
We are staying the night in Marton, having a look around after lunch, then off again in the morning.
We are both doing great and totally enjoying our life.Baca lagi

Calm in the Midst of a Storm
28 Januari 2023, New Zealand ⋅ 🌧 19 °C
We are back in Opunake today... a very wet, windy, miserable day for travel, never the less, we are here.
We have a small meeting we are speaking/praying at 2pm today, then we are off to the Catholic Church in the morning and to the Wave Fellowship pot luck tea and Bible Study at night.
Monday we drive through to Martin, then hopefully we make our way up to Rotorua and Tauranga.Baca lagi

We Have D'Power!!
22 Januari 2023, New Zealand ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
Arrived back in camp with power back up and running.
We have been without power in the MH since Saturday Afteroon. The manager got a fellow camper over to help sort it but couldn't therefore the manager put all our stuff into his freezer, and provided us with a small fridge for our perishables.
Off to Nationwide RV this morning and we are now all up and running.... thank you.
Sunday evening we joined in the singing at the "fellowship centre" here at the camp... great old songs from a long long time ago... awesome.
Tomorrow I am off to get my COF.. hoping all goes well... but we have d'power!!
Oh.. yes...yesterday we had a wonderful catch up with my sister Patricia and Lance in Inglewood... a truly beautiful time.Baca lagi

Waymaker Journey Continues
19 Januari 2023, New Zealand ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
We spent a couple of nights at the motorcamp at the Mount Egmont Boat Club. In that time we walked rested, and trained a whole load of eels.(can you call a group of eels a school?)
We carried on through to New Plymouth on Friday, found our camp site down Nania Rd then went and gave Cyrus a bath at Animates, bought food, and by 4pm were parked outside the main gates of Pukekura Park... ready for the light show that was to be turned on at 8:30,pm.
We took Cyrus through the park until 7pm.. sat in the motor home until 8pm and then went and enjoyed a remarkable festival of lights... everywhere were lights.. wonderful
We are off in a few minutes to Mitre 10 and tomorrow it is COF day.... help!!Baca lagi

We Are Able to Still Hear The Surf
17 Januari 2023, New Zealand ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
We left Middleton Beach Opunake around 9am yesterday after a restless sleep... our very first. A lady and children were sleeping on the beach with music playing, then the gas bottle ran out and the fridge started beeping therefore I had to get up, get dressed, and go out to change the bottles over .. drat it!
Before heading westward we once again visited the dump station, filled the empty gas bottle (had to wait for a tanker to stop filling up the garage gas tanks.) Then we were off to the Maui Gas Fields Refinery, Parihaka Maori Land War/protest, and the Cape Egmont Lighthouse befoe heading off along the beautiful coast on a partially metal road to the Capelight Musium., Mount Egmont Boating Club, and another lighthouse... all in one.
It is another glorious sunny day today in Warea and the surf is running in.
I think it is time for breakfast and then........ !!!Baca lagi

Beach Day For The Lady
16 Januari 2023, New Zealand ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
Off to the Opunake main beach for Waymaker today. First we had laundry, shopping and the normal dump station visit to take care of.. then to buy fish and chips and off to the beach.
I think after 3 months on the road that I am now starting to relax....
Yesterday was a very special day at "The Wave Church". We were blessed by an incredibly weight and presence of the Holy Spirit. The church was full, worship and prayer time incredible, and the time of fellowship was wonderful at both services. We thank the Lord for the blessing of "words"of life from Holy Spirit and for lives changed.
Not sure yet what we are to do tomorrow. We know our next step but not yet when to take it. !!!Baca lagi

Opunake.. A Place of Rest
13 Januari 2023, New Zealand ⋅ 🌙 17 °C
Sitting in our motorhome on the edge of a lake or overlooking a beach and the sea brings a strength back to our bodies. Rest is a good thing and here our bodies are getting plenty of it.
Walking the beach, or around the lake, or just a lazy stroll up the main street becomes therapy to the soul.
This morning even the spirit is being taken care of as we attend the Wave Church... at a combined service this morning at 10 and a pot bless tea at 5.30pm.
We ard not sure when we will move on... I dont think our work here is over yet!!Baca lagi
