We Are Here, We Are Here, We Are Here!!!!

     Like the Who's on the clover that Horton hears, we are shouting that we are here!  Some of us, anyway.  About 1/2 the group is still on the road, coming in from various vacation spots. The entire group is due to be together tonight and we will all have an orientation with Harrison from HOMES.  We had 2 REALLY long days in the vans and were so happy to arrive yesterday afternoon. We went out for dinner last night and while we had to wait a long time for everything to get to our tables, the food was good and the one waitress that was serving the 22 of us did a great.

     Today some of attended the Whitesburg United Methodist Church. They were very welcoming to us and prayed for traveling mercies for those who have not yet arrived. We heard stories of the black bears in the area who are apparently aggressive enough to break into homes, trash kitchens, and break dining room tables.  Going out of the building to the bath house in the middle of the night has taken on a whole new meaning!

     Right now, some folks have gone on a scenic drive, some a hike, and others are preparing to go to Walmart. A lazy afternoon in preparation for heading to work tomorrow morning at 7:30am.  Keep sharing this blog on Facebook so that others might join in and follow our adventures.  They'll be more tomorrow but for now, here are a couple of pic from our trip here.

     Blessings,

This was found on the door of the parsonage Friday morning, thanks to Kara!

When we got here, we almost stopped because we had arrived!

Apparently the Hampton Inn has an interesting idea of what constitutes "deluxe"!
