What A Month!!







This month has been a whirlwind. I can't even remember what I have written. Alie & I hit the road Sunday before last headed for Georgia. It is a trip I will long remember and long want not to remember! We were in a 16' Penske truck and behind us we were pulling her Honda on a car trailer! I can't believe we didn't take out any stop signs or people along the way.

We spent the night Sunday nite in Morganton and ate with the Potter/Pruitt clan at a Mexican restaurant. It was so good to see Edyth....and of course, Joseph (& Leah) will be living just across the parking lot from Al at Columbia. By the time we landed in Decatur, Joseph had rounded up a few folks to help unload the truck. People just started coming out of the woodwork and the truck was unloaded in about 1 hr!!! We headed into Atlanta to return the truck/trailer and the headed to the Decatur Diner for some food. We were both white knuckled and trembling when we walked in out of the heavy fog! We met Beryl, the waitress and she was a welcoming delight!

Tuesday was spent unpacking....I took a cab to the airport Wednesday and flew home on AIR TRAN (no more Delta for this family!). Al loves it there.....

I have been a slug for a few days. Alicia has started her radiation treatments. She & Ellen came over one evening and we watched THE HELP (again). John had a memorial service to conduct Saturday and was thrilled to bring home a big plate of homemade Tabernacle food!

It's strange having Al so far away....good though....so proud of her!

Now the push to get back into WORKCAMP prep!
