so tonight we are camping at a rest stop off of I10 in west texas. we didnt find fuel for over 100 miles and as such are sitting with an almost totally dry tank. optimistic estimates for fuel give us 3/4 of a gallon and a realistic estimate is more like 1/4 of a gallon of gas left in the tank. the closest fuel we know of is 15 miles away so there is better than even money that we will run out of gas before reaching a gas station. hopefully though we can get gas in time to find a church to attend :) something will work out, it always does!
while we were thinking about our gas situation this team of 4 people came up to visit us because they saw our sign in the car window. they are a volunteer team for invisible children who spread the word about the longest running conflict in africa. they have been on the road for 2 months and have been living out of their van! we chatted about different places we had been and things we had seen along the way. it was neat to find other wandering people and Christian ones at that! we exchanged contact info in hopes that we might meet up again at the grand canyon in a few days and we took turns praying for each other. they took off, hoping to make it to new mexico later this evening.

Hope you guys can find some gas soon! You should carry a little with you next time. :) That's so cool that you met the people from invisible children...it's a pretty neat group.
