At midnight tonight I'll be departing Arkansas and on my way to Louisiana. It takes me nearly 10 hours to make the drive when I do, but I'll be on my first greyhound bus ride and wont arrive in Lake Charles until nearly 20 hours later. I'm not looking forward to the ride but am going to be on the lookout for interesting stories.
This is Joey watching the dog run around the yard. He really gets a kick out of that. And he's wearing his little pirate outfit that I think is just the cutest.. :D
Playing in the creek is an everyday activity; that I'm going to miss very much! We have so much fun!
Smiles from Joe!
And my little surfer man! Before going to the pool.I hate that life is full of goodbyes! Because one cannot possible know my much I'm going to miss Joey while I'm gone! (tears).
"No matter where you go or what you do, around the corner is yet another goodbye."

Yes...Danette, there will be more good-byes. But they usher in all sorts of new hellos - and that is where the adventure comes in!
You met me, and Debi, and all of your current friends with a God-filled new beginning SO many months ago...
It's gotta be worth it...even a little?
Okay Rebekah, it's worth having the friends I have, yes.. But I don't want to say goodbye ever again... I guess it's just a wish that will never come true.
I do love hellos too, but I don't like having to try and explain my life to everyone I meet. "So you don't live anywhere?" How does that work anyways?
Hey 'Nette,
The following song is about Jesus.

Oh, You did not have a home
There were places You visited frequently
You took off Your shoes and scratched Your feet
'Cause you knew that the whole world belongs to the meek
But You did not have a home
No, You did not have a home And You did not take a wife
There were pretty maids all in a row
Who lined up to touch the hem of Your robe
But You had no place to take them, so You did not take a wife
No, You did not take a wife
Birds have nests, foxes have dens
But the hope of the whole world rests
On the shoulders of a homeless man
You had the shoulders of a homeless man
No, You did not have a home
Well you had no stones to throw
You came without an ax to grind
You did not tow the party line
No wonder sight came to the blind
You had no stones to throw
You had no stones to throw
And You rode and ass' foal
They spread their coats and cut down palms
For You and Your donkey to walk upon
But the world won't find what it thinks it wants
On the back of an ass' foal
So I guess You had to get sold
'Cause the world can't stand what it can't own
And it can't own You 'Cause You did not have a home
Birds have nests, foxes have dens
But the hope of the whole world rests
On the shoulders of a homeless man
You had the shoulders of a homeless man
No, You did not have a home
Birds have nests, foxes have dens
But the hope of the whole world rests
On the shoulders of a homeless man
You had the shoulders of a homeless man
And the world can't stand what it can't own
And it can't own You
'Cause You did not have a home

Oh, its soo true that you will always say good-byes no matter where you go... but I guess the best part of it is that it means you are always making more connections that will last forever! And sometimes when you least expect it some of those good-byes turn into just simple "see you later"s, and the reunions are are so sweet for the soul!! Miss you so much girl!! I miss our daily chats!! I hope you are having a blast sailing around the world! I'm praying for you!!!
