Over the pass and 88

The pass through the Sierra Nevadas.

Yesterday, we woke up at a weigh station near Topaz, right next to the road that we wanted to take. Unfortunately it was closed, so we kept driving and made our way back to the valley. As we were driving, we figured we'd go to the first church we found. At 10:29, I saw a church and Ben turned around and we pulled into the parking lot at 10:30 am, right when the service started. We ended up going to The Healing Word, a Foursquare Church in Pioneer right off of Route 88. The folks at the church were extremely welcoming and we had a great meal after the service. We really enjoyed hearing about the church's work in the community and how they followed their words with action. They even gave us some delicious food to take with us, which will definitely get us home.
We then made it to Galt, where Austin's dad lives and he treated us to dinner and gave us a warm place to sleep, which is awesome.
