Road Trip!

Call us crazy and you are probably right on target!

After all...

I took my family to a rebel controlled community to live

With graves in the front yard and back

Of which amoebic dysentery

Gigantic spiders and cobras

There was no lack!

I left a secure job

With no viable means of support

With street and homeless youth to build a rapport.

Believing in each case

The calling of God

Though considered by many

That our senses of us had been robbed!

So now...

To the road we have been called!

No...I'm not blaming this on God

Nor even insinuating that is Him 

Who has called us this path to trod.

We just want to do it!!

Cindy and I have so many fond memories

Of motorcycle trips together

Along the 101 highway down to California

The North Cascades

And across the Canadian Rockies.

So...

Despite the pain 

The difficulty walking

The recent very difficult chemo side effects

(Of which I am much better)

It is time for another road trip together

Taking it easy

Stopping when need be

Together two weeks on the road

(In the car)

Just shifting into enjoyment mode!

That's it...

We have put any treatment on hold

As we will be considering when we get back

How God wants us to move forward.

(More on that later)

Our plan is to be gone two weeks

Heading south to our oldest son and family in Genesee

Then looping back a different route

To enjoy the beauty this country is about.

We leave in two days

That we can do this is certainly a reason for praise!

We would appreciate your prayer and positive thoughts

That any problems would come to naught.

Thanks again for your incredible support!

Many blessings,

Dave
