Another Great Adventure: All About Pigeon Forge... MORE TO COME

Copied from my FB entries:

April 9

Prayers needed for the upcoming adventure which has expanded in scope. (Details will come down the line a bit ) Feels like God's hand is upon this, praising Him for a smooth road ahead :)

Friends and Family: A new adventure begins for me tomorrow morning and I would appreciate your continued prayers. I am packing up my van today to park it in front of Joanie's house who will take care of my cats for a month, as I am leaving on a roadtrip to Tennesse. I am taking an 84yo Korean War Vet to a reunion/commemoration in Pigeon Forge. He will be awarded a Peace Medal from a representative of the Korean Government. We will also be visiting his hometown of Erwin, TN and around, as well as Nashville and a couple record shops. Going to be a fun adventure. HOWEVER, he has had previous heart problems, and a bit of dementia and his family has not been totally forthcoming about previous experiences with drivers in the past (which I have found out about from people in town I have talked with.) He moves slowly, cannot always track a conversation, and can be both sweet and cranky. I have been in prayer and I am not seeing God close the door, so it will be full steam ahead tomorrow morning in his Mercury Marquis. I am depending on God's Grace and Wisdom for all upcoming situations. Besides... I have the car keys! Lol... I can turn around at any time if necessary. I will be taking pictures and sharing on FB, so stay tuned! And please pray :) Thank you! :)

2 Timothy 1:7
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

This morning he told me I was snoring... but said that was good for me! :) Breakfast at McDonald's - we both like their coffee! We had a "moment" when I wouldn't turn off on a road over the mountains toward Bishop. God's Grace prevailed and after a few minutes he told me I could go the way I wanted. :) Then he wouldn't talk to me but after about a half hour he said, "Boo!", smiled and said he was sorry. We lunched at Denny's in Beatty, NV, made our way through Las Vegas at rush hour, and drove over the new big bridge over Hoover Dam which has thrown him off because he couldn't see where we crossed over the river. Stopped at McDonald's for a fish sandwich and have found a funky motel in Kingman on Hwy 66! Please keep us in your prayers :) Thank you!
