Vacation...

So, I’ve been trying to make myself more spontaneous, it’s not easy to change how one is wired, but I’m trying. It’s fun.

I’m on vacation this week and figured I’d just work around the house getting some things done. Didn’t work out that way, we decided on Monday that we should go to Washington, D.C. so we did. Bought tickets on the 12:30 train from our home town to D.C., It was a long ride, but we got in, late even, but in good spirits. One of our friends picked us up and drove us around the city a bit (my wife and two of my kids) we saw all of the monuments, etc. It was cool to see them all lit up at night. I must say the WWII memorial is amazing at night! Last time we were here it was still under construction, so we finally got here and slept, just hanging around today (which is VERY nice) maybe tomorrow we’ll go into town and see what’s happening. Tour some monuments and such, maybe we’ll hit the zoo, we’re not sure exactly.

I started reading a good book on the way down to D.C. “The Challenge of Jesus” by N.T. Wright, so far, good book. I would love to use this book as a basis for a message, but I don’t have enough time.

I am still baffled however; as I am scheduled to speak in church on Sunday (two services) and I still have nothing, nada, zip, zero, less than that even, I’m in negative numbers here. We shall see where his majesty leads.

Well, I guess I better get back to my vacation.

Peace, love, beer,
