Well, after a full day here, we’re mostly packed, the kids are in bed (Gavin’s fall-asleep time: 5 min; Drew’s: 15; Fiona’s: 30), the gas tank is topped up. We’ll take off about 8:30 am and gain an hour pretty early on (!). Hopefully we can find a place to eat at roughly the five-hour mark (Yakima?) and then get into Tacoma around 5 pm.

It’s been a good time. We’ve probably had better, more serious responses here than just about anywhere else. I think we’re doing a better job of communicating our plans and needs this year than last, but this is a pretty sharp group of churches here. It was a privilege to be here. And, it was nice to get 14/16 days of sunshine, with only one day of rain and another day of …snow!

On the other hand, we’re ready to be back home, to get back into our routine, get Drew back into school, back to thesis work, etc…oh yeah…

So, thank you Treasure Valley churches!
