Another week gone by

Well when we left off, we were in the parking lot of the Kansas City Wal-Mart and Ben was getting his brand new tire. Austin and I headed over to Men's Warehouse and while he got his measurements, I poked around, picking up change and rode a pig. (I made that hat.)


We spent the night in the parking lot, getting shout outs from locals about how great Oregon is (Right on.) and how awesome the Ducks are. When we woke up, we headed out and started looking for a church to attend. We made it to Liberty, MO and started following folks who were well dressed and in their cars. After one of them decided to pull into a school (which was also a church we later found out) we kept going and eventually found Liberty Christian Fellowship, an amazing church where we were welcomed and had a chance to visit small group and their service. Afterward, we were welcomed to attend lunch with some great folks and we were even invited to spend the night at their house! So here we are, sitting in their living room, awaiting a home cooked meal and it is stupendous. (They also let us use their showers and do some laundry. Also great.) We are really blessed by this church and their members and if you're ever in Liberty, Missouri stop by and visit.

Also, we had a visitor in our car yesterday. The bugs around here are fond of hitting the Subaru. Austin got sprayed by his internals and this little dude wound up back next to me in the backseat.


Lastly, hello to Amanda!

  1. We loved meeting you! You were a delight to have in our home and if ever you are near Liberty again we would love for you to visit. Maybe someday we will come to the Great Northwest and visit you. I thank God for the opportunity he gave us in meeting you. Our lives have been richly blessed by your visit.
    PS Thank you for the heavy lifting!
    Your sister in Christ

    I pray you will find and have continued fun and saftey on your journey - I really enjoyed meeting you all and the discourse we had over the many biblical subjects we talked about last night and this morning.
