| Our picture Bev took of us this morning by the 50th Anniversary sign. There was a glare so Ziggy took another one of us tonight |
Our ride down our favorite hilly and curvy road here. It’s just a 9 mile ride, but it is thrilling. Ziggy led us and Lew and Cindy rode with us too. Cindy had to close her eyes at times. I’m getting more used to it now and I can relax more....not totally though lol.
We didn’t have to be down to the pavilion until 9, so I got up at 6, got ready, went back in the bedroom and read my Bible. Bill was still sleeping. I woke him up at 7:15. I went out to tell Ziggy I would make pancakes and sausage, but he had left already. We had a vendor who cleans all of the camper tanks and hot water heater come clean ours at 8. Bill at outside and read his Bible while he was here and I read my Bible inside. It was only 60 degrees out. I had the fireplace going. I decided to walk down to the pavilion myself because I wanted to hear the International leaders speak. Right after I started walking, a van stopped and asked me if I wanted a ride. It is a new ministry this year and this sweet couple is doing it. I said yes, because I wanted to get down there on time. This area rep from Iowa, Bubba and his wife got on. They had a couple from Australia who are staying with them, get in with them. It was nice to meet them and hear them talk. The wife of the driver had papers with scriptures on them and had us each pull one out of her hand. Then we all read ours. Mine was Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say rejoice. It was a neat idea. She also offered us bracelets. None of us needed one because we have some like it. I got there just as it started. Worship was awesome again. Then it was so amazing listening to the International people speak. There were CMA leaders that spoke from Paraguay, Brazil, Spain and Mexico. When they shared, it sure showed us how easy we have it in America, to witness and do bike blessings. The interpreters were amazing and the speakers shared about their love for America and their brothers and sisters in Christ here. They thanked Holly Ogden who has helped them become leaders and chapters and told her they loved her. What a special service.
Afterward, we walked around and looked at all the stuff the vendors had. Lots of vendors here and nice stuff. Last night we had told Ziggy we were going to try to go check the really hilly and curvy road we love out to make sure it’s good this year to drive down, because we want to take Lew and Cindy. He came in the camper later and said he had rode down it and it was great and also found out another road by it was completely paved now. That was so nice of him! Lew and Cindy came over and Ziggy led us and we all had a great time going down those roads together. Afterwards, he came back to the campground to meet friends and we went to the Chopping Block to eat. It is always packed, so we went early at 3:30 and got seated right away. It was so good.
