Can you believe, that we finally set out from Madison? Friday we made the decision, yesterday we did most of our prep work, knowing it was going to rain early today, and when the rain stopped about 9am, we finished the prep, brought in our back slides, retracted the jacks, hooked up the car, and headed west. The "cloud" hadn't fully lifted until we passed Atlanta and then it brightened up, the sun finally came out and we traveled easily until we reached our destination here in Florence, Alabama.
We are parked on the north side of the Tennessee River in a city-run RV Park and plan to spend two nights here, before heading west again. By Wednesday or Thursday we should be back in Eureka Springs. We enjoy our GA and AR "homes", but it feels good to be on the road again, seeing the small towns, back roads and wide variety of "America". Once again we marveled at the large number of churches; in some places it seemed there were more churches than homes. God is still at work in so many places and in so many ways.
The interesting tidbit for the day was that we "lost" an hour overnight from the change to Daylight Saving Time, and today when we crossed the GA-AL state-line we "gained" it back. I don't ever remember being in a situation where that happened to us in our travels. There are so other instances, however, in life where we are lost, then found; give something away, only to see it returned in some other form; have a trial or sorrow, only to be blessed in the long run because of it. In all these things, there's one response.........Thank You, Lord. And for today, and each day You give us...........Thank You, Lord.
