Journal, Beginning 7.29.06

Finally found some time to get back to it. We are both doing well and we begin on 7.29.06 - At this time we are in Batesville, IN. It is another warm day. It is going to be a lazy day. Gunny read on his book "Come Let's Reach the World" by K.P. Yohannan. I updated my journal and when I do that now it makes me think of my Father in heaven. So I guess that would be everyday now. smile. I worked on my bible study while Gunny worked on our "Marriage" outline. It is going well. We built a fire and relaxed before our night time reading before bed.7.30.06 - Even though we knew it was going to be warm today, we decided to take a bike ride and go on a picnic. We went through Batesville and on to Oldenburg, the town of spires. Gunny saw some bikers parked at on old church in town so we went to check it out. There were 18 people and 15 bikes! We asked if we could ride with them and they said yes, so we visited a bit. Met everyone and handed out some of our tracts. Several of the riders were Christians, but we shared with all. It was a great ride! Good fellowship, fun, beautiful country and we took to Kenny and Jean right away. Kenny was the leader of the pack, smile. We stopped first in Friendship and had some cool drinks. Next stop was t fuel up and Gunny told Kenny we would be parting our ways because it wasn't in our budget to go have lunch with them. He told Gunny no problem, top off the tank on Pearl and he would buy us lunch also! He is a very nice person. Before that, he had invited Gunny and I to houesit for them for 2 weeks! We are going to pray about it. We all had lunch in Vevay and the food was great. There is an annual wine festival there in Sept. and we would really like to go. It was about 1730 when we left Vevay and our next stop was the last fuel stop for some. On our way there we passed some Amish people, 2 buggies and a bicycle rider. We slowed down for them of course. About 10 minutes after the last stop, Gunny and I parted the group to head for home. It took us only another 10 minutes to get home and it was 1930 at this time. We were hot, sweaty, slightly sunburned and happy. This had to be one of our best days yet. Everyone on the ride was so nice. Including Gunny, there were 4 marines on this ride. Because it was Sunday, we considered this our church service today. What a blessed day it was! We had prayer time before bed. That is it for this page. On to the next day.
