A short update

Just a real quick update to let you all know we are in Wisconsin.  In COLD Wisconsin.  In COLD, with SNOW on the ground Wisconsin.  No, not a lot of snow, but it's still here.  And COLD....well for us anyway.

We got here last night about 5 PM.  Good to be in one place without traveling.  Those three days on the road were tiresome, but glad we did it.  First day got to the Georgia/Florida border.  I sort of wore out at that point.  Slept good that night then spent ten hours on the road on Thursday.  Got to the Kentucky/Illinois border that night.  Then yesterday did the rest (like 8 hours) and into central Wisconsin.  I slept a LONG time last night.  Guess I was catching up on sleep.  Saw some beautiful scenes and did enjoy the trip except the last day was almost TOTALLY rain.  In some spots, it was hard to see the road, but I pushed forward anyway.  Met some nice people on the way at the rest stops.  Even had some interesting conversations at gas stations and hotel lobbies.  I kept thinking of our nephew who passed away the week before.  He loved the share the message of the Lord wherever he went.  I pray God gives me the boldness he had before he left here to be with Jesus.  He was a true example of sharing Christ!!

Well, need to go find somewhere to warm these cold feet up.  Those who live here say, well, it chilly....NOPE...it's COLD!!!  Love to you all and will try to keep you updated on our time in the US!!
