We haven't taken much time off from our Passion Play duties this season. There is always something which needs to be done, a task which needs to be completed, people to talk to, stuff which won't get done because there isn't someone else who realizes it needs to done, and a host of other things which keep us close to "home".
But today, Jerry and Renee and Karen and I decided we needed to get away, help them celebrate their 52nd wedding anniversary and just have a day off. So, we went to church, drove to Branson, had a leisurely lunch, went to a variety show with magic, singing, dancing, acrobatics, comedy and a patriotic finale, ate ice cream, and came home to our Passion Play home. We spent a few minutes feeding our petting zoo animals and are settled into our separate motor homes for the night.
It was good to get away. We met some nice people, weren't in any rush to do what we did do, laughed a lot, talked about the four years we've known each other, and some of our plans for the next few months. It was a good day. Tomorrow I will do the things I would normally have done today, knowing that no one else would have thought to do them, and that's okay, because they could wait to be done a day late. We all need a break from what has been a labor intensive season. A lot has been accomplished, with a lot still to do, but it remains a blessing to be where we are, doing what we do, knowing that God has it all under control and has a plan B, plan C, and a lot of other plans, when we decide to take a day off. Thank You, Lord, for the break.
