Melanie and I got up this morning at 4:30 AM and were able to leave the house at 5:10 AM, on our way to Ridgecrest, NC.  We drove through Birmingham and of course, had to go to Starbucks.  We ate lunch in Chattanooga, then drove on through Knoxville, and finally passed through Ashville, ending up here at the Ridgecrest Conference Center, in Ridgecrest, NC.  We are just getting unpacked and will rest a bit before heading out to grab a bite to eat somewhere in Asheville.

I am so glad that my mom and Bill are at my house with the kids.  They are so wonderful for doing that for us.

Hope everyone is well... all 2 of you who read this.  haha.

Here is a picture I took with my phone.  The mountains are awesome!



Later,

John
