Follow Up

Now that the laundry is done and we are back on a somewhat normal routine I will take time to tell the "rest of the story". We left Altamont, KS on Wed. and headed for a few days of family fun in Branson. We camped out in a state park nearby.

From there we headed to Kansas City on Sat. We had the privilege of having dinner with Twila and Kieth. They took us to a really cool dinasour restaurant. The kids loved it. We were at a church in Kansas City that Sun. morning and then in Ottawa that evening. The service started at 7:30 because there is a family in the church who own a huge dairy farm, and they have to get the evening chores done before church. We got there early enough to take the boys to watch the evening milking. Thus the picture on me and the cow in the last post. We really bonded.

On Mon morning we left our little trailer in KS and headed for Colorado. We spent Tuesday in Colorado Springs. We took the boys to Odessy, which is way too cool, then we drove into the "cold mountains". (Collinese) Pikes Peak is really cold in the summer, the boys actually got to play in the snow.
On Wed night we had a service in Delta, CO. It was nice to be with Nathan and Amy. Since she is the cook at Seabreeze Campmeeting we were treated to lots of good food. From there we headed toward Idaho, with one overnight campout near Salt Lake City. On Sat we had the Alumni Reunion for Hobe Sound Bible College. It was wonderful to visit with old friends. We were disappointed that quite a few were out of town. We stayed with Brent and Rochenda. Since she is one of my nearest and dearest it was wonderful to spend some quality time together. They took us to a rodeo that night and the boys thought they had died and gone to heaven.

We were in Emmett on Sun morning and in Nampa that evening. Then on Tues we drove two hours through the mountians to McCall, which I must is gorgeous country. We were at a church there that night and then back in Boise for Wed. night. We left that night after the service and began the long drive back to LA in order to be in Shreveport Sun morning. We are so thankful for God's protection over us. He is so faithful. We arrived back in FL on Mon night and our beds have never looked so good.
We got to go to our church on Wed night. Harold was standing in the back with Landon who looked at him very innocently and said "Dad, do you remember when we used to go to this church?". I think we'll stay home for awhile.
I'll post some more random pictures at the bottom for anyone interested.
