Day 150: Last Day in Branson

September 11, 2014

Can't type in that date and not remember what happened that September day in 2001 when our world forever changed. I hope you remembered to say a prayer for the families of those who died that day. And always continue to remember our military, police, fire, EMS, EMA and 9-1-1 dispatch personnel. The Rivoli Review provided entertainment tonight for our closing and one of the songs they did was “Freedom Isn't Free.”

Today was a cloudy day with cooler temps and some misty rain at times. We actually enjoyed a break in the humidity. We got email for our friends at Storm Mountain this afternoon and they have 5-6 inches of wet snow. Too bad we aren't still there.

Today started again with devotional at 7:00, followed by breakfast of pancakes, then singing, speaker, business meeting and seminars. It was another good day of fellowship, education and fun. One of our seminars was on disaster rebuilds – we know a lot about that already, and another on full-time RVing. There are some members who have been full-timing 16 years traveling around this country working NOMADS projects. This is a really great group of dedicated people “working to rebuild lives, homes, and facilities with God's love and our hands.” It is an honor to work with them. We have had a great time and made some wonderful new friends.

Tomorrow we head to Arkansas to visit some family and then probably back to Blount County some time Saturday.
