I'm catching up

Or it's evening and I'm just in a writing mood. Either way, I was just thinking about books and how much a good book is worth. You know the saying that a picture is worth a thousand words? I like to say the opposite about a good book, which is really just saying something about the author. A good author, or writer, can make a single word worth a thousand pictures. That is what writing is about. It's the other side of photography, I think. Because they both seem to create images, just using different methods. When I write poetry, that is what I try to do, create images, thoughts, ideas...mind-pictures.

Mis-spellings

They are all on account of my laziness and unwillingness to go back and fix them...I'm typing on the iPad and haven't got an external keyboard yet, so it takes too long to fix things. My pride wouldn't let me go without giving an explanation. ;)

Back

So I fianlly post again now that I am in Nevada. We made it all the way down here. We are all stressed out and tired all the time. It's like we can't really relax. Driving with the trailer is extremely stressful and we have been avoiding all the cities because of it. Which means break stops are limited. It has been interesting, God has been so amazingly good to us this whole trip. One example was when we were driving through Canada, and we were headed down to Williams lake, and about 30 minutes out of whatever town we had just passed through (everything has become quite a blur) we came across a horrible accident that had stopped traffic for three hours Already. Apparently some idiot had been driving and tried to pass an ambulance on it's way to the hospital, and clipped it, sending the ambulance off the road into a telephone pole, causing a gas explosion of some sort at the same time. So God provided us with a trucker who got out of his truck and came up to ours, and told us this other way to get to where we were going with only a forty minute difference. We all had Gods amazing peace that whole detour trip to the town of McBride, while driving, it got dark and my mom and I were praying that God would keep the deer off the road. I got this picture of angels lining the road in front onus, completely clearing the path for us. We encountered no trouble.
While driving through some park in Cali, it got dark again too, but I felt completely uncomfortable, and exposed, and tense. I prayed for the same protection and peace and the image I got was different then mcbride. Instead of lining the road, the angels were surrounding our vehicles and instead of a cleared path, we were like armored trucks pushing through enemy territory.
It was interesting. And cool.
We are now in Ely and we had a stressful day and time setting up. One of our stabilizers for the trailer broke. We could use prayer for that and wisdom.

Miss all my Alaska friends, and look forward to meeting all the new ones!
