Howdy everyone! As you can see from my previous post, my laptop wifi has been out of commission so…here we are in New Jersey and the church we’re singing at tomorrow morning is graciously letting me plug in directly….so that means…pictures and post! Loooong over due posts, ones I’ve had sitting in my laptop for a while…

Here’s the latest post: The Home Stretch

Yes, we are in the home stretch! (We may be home by the time I have a computer with photos and a connection to post this!) It doesn’t seem to matter if it’s 5 weeks or 9, toward the end of the trip we are all excited about going home! While home is coming up quickly on Monday I want to recap our last week for you all. How full and fun it has been!

We have enjoyed coming to Asheboro, NC for several years now and enjoyed the southern family style hospitality of the Matsons on more than one occasion and this time through was no exception. A delightful time of fellowship was had as we ate and played on their acres just outside of Asheboro.

One of the highlights with them was going to the North Carolina Zoo thanks to the Lewis family.

We enjoyed seeing…

Here’s an even older post: Texas Ranch

By the time this gets posted we should be out of Texas or not to far from being out of Texas! We spent a few days at the exotic animal camp/ranch in Texas, out side of Paris. We lived next to the horses, who in turn had their field next to the ostrich pen.

Here’s Bonnie making friends with the camel. ;D

We saw lemurs.

It’s really hard to get nice photos through wires…but not much I could do about it this time.

They had a few projects we were able to work on including brush/tree removal.

Then the fun part of dumping it off at the burn pile!

And, horse rides the last day!

Sunday we spent the day singing and hanging out with the Neals (Grandpa’s Neighbors). What fun! We’re so glad we got to meet you all!
