The Wild West


We've
been on the road 4 days a
nd are darn close to our final destination. Kansas and Nebraska were fairly uneventful. Wyoming was so windy we just tried to keep the car on the road. Just this evening we passed into Oregon - we're stopped for the night and will roll into Portland tomorrow aftern
oon!

We stopped over for a day and 2 nights in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming. We stayed at a place called Triangle X Ranch where we were the only guests! It's a dude ranch during the summer and a cozy winter wonderland right now. We got to know the staff there, ate great food, and even got to try cross-country skiing for the first time. The Tetons are incredible - like jaggedy pyramids jutting out of the land above the Snake River. Our mini-vacation there was a really good time to slow down and allow a little more reality to sink in as we make this big transition.

The 2 of you are such an inspiration to so many - we continue to pray for a safe journey and all the things you will be doing to bring others to Christ.
