We had the sky up there, all speckled with stars, and we used to lay on our backs and look up at them, and discuss about whether they was made or only just happened.” Mark Twain

When I can see skies like this I wake up saying “Good morning, God!” rather than “Good God, it’s morning!”

Footprints
by Margaret Powers

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the LORD. Across the sky flashed scene from his life. He noticed two sets of footprints in the sand.

When the last scene of his life flashed before him he noticed that many times there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it was at the very lowest times in his life.

He questioned the LORD about it. "LORD, you said that once I decided to follow you you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me."

The LORD replied, "My precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you."

LANCASTER,OHIO FORT MYERS BEACH, FLORIDA. A ROAD TRIP ON INTERSTATE 75

     Well we are a few miles down the road and just about to enter the great state of Florida but need a break and some gas and who do we meet, Moses.

We told Moses we were on a wandering road trip and he told us, “just because your wandering doesn’t mean your lost.” He had a couple other pretty good stories and insisted we try some of those free samples. Boiled peanuts , boiling  in the back of his building.boiledpeanuts2 and don’t forget Honey Roasted Pecans. Well we topped that off with a big glass of orangejuice1  Orange Juice and we were on our way. Thanks Moses for your hospitality.

I haven’t been in a package store in years stopped drinking years ago. Have an allergy to alcohol which causes me to “break out” all over the country not remembering how I got there.

FtMyers3

Linda and I had driven about 600 miles before we stopped. We figured we were about half way there. In the morning before we left we dressed in shorts and short sleeved shirts (wanted to be ready for the warmer weather)

We saw three accidents on the way down and three on the way back some single car some multiple (all bad). Will do a future post on one of them (not the accident but the traffic jam). I have never seen people drive as they did.
