Sad day for us.

Please pray for a couple that was with us: Jonas and Lill Miller and their daughter Jessalyn, they received news this afternoon that Ranae, their other daughter lost her companion, Ryan. Ryan died from complications of pneumonia. Ranae and Ryan had a daughter together that will be 4 years old in October! Jack Coleman drove Jonas, Lill and Jessalyn home . Please pray for safety as they travel. They have an 11 Hour trip ahead of them. They left around 6PM. This will dampen our spirits for the remainder of our trip, our thoughts and prayers will be with the Miller family and Ryan's family as well.

Fridays schedule!

Harbor tour of Charleston and then on to Boone Plantation. Pictures to come!

Early morning beach walk!

What a place!!!

We are all very happy!!!!

Skeet shoot!

Guys shooting competition while the ladies had their massages at Flat Creek lodge.

On the morn of September 13, 2012

11 men set out to prove themselves

Rugged carts with trailers and bennellis harnessed tight

Each man hoped their gun was sighted in just right

25 shots per person were permitted

Then each man with his gun became fitted

Baseball was the theme of this shoot

Strait up, across, forward, and backward to boot.

Impact with the targets were few and far between,

That was until little Miss Donna entered the scene.

Pine trees to shoot were the first on her list

Wilson, with his I-Pad, not a moment was missed

A few minutes passed and Donna stepped up in line

This moment became her time to shine!

Jack proclaimed, “You’re looking with your wrong eye.”

PULL! And the bird from gate 5 went straight into the sky.

A deep breath was taken, senses were trusted

And with one loud BLAM the clay birdie was Dusted!

A Roar of amazement went over the crowd,

And with that great accomplishment, Donna bowed.

“It takes a Woman!!!”, She said with a smile.

Shocked and amazed, the sorry-shooting men threw their guns in a pile.

The boys knew this story would be repeated

About the day, ……… their shooting skills were defeated.

The countdown is on!!!

Well friends, it is just 11 days till we hit the road, or should I say that we will be "on the road again"?  Only this time perhaps our theme song should be, "Day by Day"?  Any other suggestions???  Like "Day Tripper"?

Anyway, for those of you reading this blog....22 dear friends will be taking a trip...a mystery trip at that.  Only Jack and Donna Coleman know for sure where this gang is going and what all they will be doing!  We are going for 10 days!  They will only find out where they are going and what they are going to be doing on that very day!!!  What a blast we are going to have!  Thanks guys for trusting us and allowing us to plan this trip...we have had lots of fun and the best is yet to come!

We will be updating this blog as we go, so be sure to check back from time to time to see "Where in the Country are the Fruitbearer Friends"?
