last night we stayed in a wal-mart parking lot and it got cold enough we got some frost on the outside of our bags. Thomas and Austin decided to bail and go back in the car and i stayed out. some where around 4 or 5 am i wake up and see the lights of a car pointing at ours. i hear the transmission go into park and then the door opens. i see a flashlight shining on me and i can see my breath in the light and i see boots on the other side of the car. i wanted to take a picture but i didnt get my phone out in time. the flashlight comes over to me and i get nudged. its the police and he asked me some funny questions. he asked if we were moving to NY or just passing through. he asked what the stuff in the front seat was and a few other things and then went on his way.
i would just like to say thank you to all the people who have helped us out on our way - it really is hard to express how much it means to us to get a hot meal or a place to put our sleeping bags. simple things really do mean a lot to us!

Hey Boys!
ReplyDeleteWe just got back from Ireland and loved catching up on your further adventures!
The Lord has really blessed you boys in so many ways!
We found out that the Brethren started in Ireland but the original church is now a hotel. We didn't get to see it but we did get to see the Book of Kells and even more impressive to me - the book of Armagh also known as Codex Ardmachanus based on the Vulgate at Trinity University - it is approx 808 AD and in insular minuscule and contains the entire new testement or close to it in vellum from over 220 calves.
There were SOOOO many things for Thomas to ride in Dublin(The James Joyce museum had a large fiberglass cow for instance)!!!!!!
In God's Love,
