Best wishes for a wonderful trip. Be safe, and have fun.

We, on the other hand.... have selected an eastern seaboard vacation for our first trip in several years..... And it turns out that Hurricane Florence wants to be there at the same time! We might have to cancel or change plans...

Way off topic. One of my best memories is a road trip from Detroit to Georgia with my then 16 year old daughter.

Her pen pal died from a medical misadventure and my daughter wanted to attend her funeral.

We deadheaded down and got there just in time for the service.

After, we stood in line to greet her parents. I was worried that the other girl meant more to my daughter than my daughter meant to her.

Boy was I wrong. When our time came, I stepped back and my daughter introduced herself to the girls dad.

He sucked in a deep breath and wrapped my daughter up in a big hug and said “I can’t believe you came.”

It seemed everybody knew who my daughter the pen pal was.

She knows some people who write for Our Daily Bread. One of them was considering including the story in their daily devotional. It never got done though.
