Today we left Kearney after a wonderful visit with Mike's parents! They spoiled us with delicious meal, fun fellowship, and a tour of all the new development in Kearney! Shirley also helped us pack our cooler for our SPRINT DAY. Today we traveled almost 12 hours and covered 730 miles! It is a long way from Northwest Mo. to Southeast, Mo., but the roadkill count was entertaining. Mike estimated : three skunks, 5 armadillo, 1 snake, a possum, and too many raccoons to count! Most of all we loved the beautiful rolling hills and green forests-gorgeous scenery and NO Beetle kill! I can't wait to get to Tennessee tomorrow--our first NEW state.
We praise GOD for the help of Samaritan's Purse Volunteers who have helped brother Doug and his wife Stacey cleanup their flooded house in Longmont. They might get back in as early as this weekend, although I doubt the garden level basement will be finished, as they can live in their other two levels and work on it in their spare time.
We sincerely appreciate your prayers for continued safety as we drive.
Love, Julie and Mike
