A pastor-couple I was going to see on Thursday evening and stay at their house about 100 miles west of here and hit the road for home the next morning having saved a couple hours off my final driving stage on Friday ... WELL, a family situation conflicted that with them... SO I'm not leaving Susie's until Friday morning. So we have one extra afternoon/ evening of the sharing/hashing/Rosenberg Epicenter DVD watching/ice cream-eating with peanut butter [a tradition since high school -- although sometimes we add hot fudge to it, too]/and only the Lord knows what else. I haven't been here all the time -- spent Saturday 100 miles north of here with a pastor-couple, and yesterday 100 miles east of here with a pastor-couple... hours and hours of joyful and intense conversation thrown into the driving stretch, so both times these visits away were in the 10-hour range. Today and tomorrow more "emptiness." <br /><br />I wouldn't take so much time to write on my own site, except that I can't send emails from up here -- receive, yes; send, no -- some kind of server conflict no one has been able to figure out. So this is a summary of the last few days.<br /><br />Thanks for the encouragements. AND before this visit is over, I hope you all will see something a bit unique by/about both of us... we're trying to come up with something that will make you all smile. <br /><br />Blessings....
