Week 1: Livingston, Louisiana

hey all!!

just writing to tell you about the last few days... we got to Louisiana and our destination @ around 10 P.M. local time.... after sitting in traffic for about 2 hours b/c of a bad accident on the highway... pray for that fam. or person..because from what we could see there may have been a death..

on our way through almost 5 full states (TN, GA, AL MS and LA) .. we made it... we had a late meal at a local joint.... one of the like 2 restaurants in this very very small town....

the church we are staying at is very small and up in age.... the gym is showing its years... but all that matters is the kids that are coming this week...

we have a place to stay and food to eat... so all is good...

today we unloaded the trailer and organized its contents... then I drove the van to the store to pick up a few things... that was an adventure..being as I have NEVER driven a van before.... I got back in one piece.. so all is good...

we then went and picked up two staffers at the airport in New Orleans..about an hour from Livingston... it was an interesting trip....driving over the bayou (i think) is a new experience for me.... but it was amazing to look at the different way a state lives....

so far I am having a wonderful time... learned some of the dance moves tonight for the songs.... and now i'm off to bed... but i will try to keep you updated as the week goes by and if I have time... life on the road is a busy...

that's all for now.. church in the morning...then camp on Monday!!! pray for me and all the staffers as we bring the love of Christ to the kids of Livingston!! :-D
