A Journey Eastward

No, I don't mean a journey into Eastern religious traditions. Since Monday we've been moving eastward toward Troy. We left Santa Barbara Monday evening, after a rather eventful day. The movers were 4 hours late, didn't have the necessary materials for packing and didn't know they were supposed to pack certain items. But, we got out of town and started the journey. After a couple of nights in Vegas (didn't do any gambling), we continued on through some beautiful country -- Utah, Wyoming, and Nebraska. Wyoming is barren of people, but full of beautiful lands. Since this is the 4th of July -- a day spent driving -- I must say that this is a beautiful land, one we must take good care of.

Only a couple of days more and then the new ministry begins. Life will take on a new dimension for me. I plan to blog, but my time may grow more limited. But the issues of the day are to important not to speak to them, so I'll keep my voice in play.

As we move toward our new home, I must stop to offer my thoughts for friends in the Goleta/Santa Barbara area being affected by the fires. The fire began yesterday, I believe. Had we still been there, we would have been watching the flames in the foothills behind us.

Tonight it's Kearney, NE, and tomorrow on to Moline!
