The trip has begun!


The trip has begun! And the weather has been incredibly warm - for now. I'm expecting it to cool down significantly in the next day or two. I just turned on the TV and the forecast is for cooling temperatures and more rain! It's been raining quite a bit while driving, so the scenery has not been what it could have been. I was a bit surprised that the UP did not have as much color as northern lower peninsula! As I was driving along, I thought the color would just get more and more pronounced. Of course, I stayed along Highway 2, so can't speak for what it was like farther north.

I stayed at Keith and Laura VenHuizen Saturday night. They are such a neat family! They opened their homes and their lives to me. I was so pleased to be given that opportunity to meet with them and to get to know a bit of that part of the country. My thanks go out to them for their hospitality.

Speaking at the church there went pretty well. The video started half-way through and the gain was set too high for the sound; they missed the beginning but no one mentioned anything about it...

I'm now in Cameron, Wisconsin - and will be leaving in the next few minutes. I am really enjoying this time, but it's early still...
