VACATION!

  Amidst the flood and business of this life, our family decided that none was a better time than the present to get away for awhile.  We took off on a voyage, which would take us across the bread basket of America, through Abilene, Kansas and to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  All of our events cannot be expressed because we would not like any intruders invading our privacy (last statement is suppose to be a joke, please laugh).  We will have the pleasure of taking in two, not to be mentioned which particular nights, nights of Oklahoma Camp Meeting.  On this voyage we are having to endure sweltering heat in order to have a little bit of fun.  Air conditioning was a great thing.  On a totally random subject, we have already had the pleasure of meeting a rather famous person.  He is the man that wrote "I Can't Even Walk Without You Holding My Hand".  Joel Longshore both played and sang the song for us.

  Things are going great in Minot, considering the circumstances.  Jared and I were having to conquer houses which had been conquerored by water.  We were having to carry out black sheetrock (mind you the sheetrock was not black from mold).  We were having to do this on days which consisted of so much heat and humidity that if you were outside for more than half -an-hour you would probably be soaked, from head-to-toe, in sweat.  Not everyday was like that but it was some very hard work.  Things are progressing in all faucets, we are not sure what will happen with our particular house yet, but it will all happen in God's timing.  Continue to keep us in your prayers.  Thank you for all the support you have given us!
