ALSO, the apartment is FINALLY rented!!! Yeah. I don't have to email anymore pics of it.

ALSO, got a laptop. The goal is to use my majic jack in Mexico. If it works, then you can call the same number, and it will be like calling somewhere in America, not international. =) Hopefully it works.I'll let you know.

SPIRITUAL WARFARE

I have 7 more days until I leave and Satan is really trying to make me scared. Let me tell you a quick story about what he did when I first got saved so you know the background.
Before I was a Christian I did not believe God existed, and was VERY sinful. At 19 I got saved. Starting that first night and lasting about 6 mo. I could barely sleep. I felt as if Satan was on top of me smothering me, and ...

I'm leaving tomorrow at 11 with a 3 hour layover in Atlanta and then off to Rome. I'll be arriving (if on time) at 1am Central time which is 8am Sunday in Rome. I have Orientation and stay the night in Rome, on Saturday i'll take the train to Lecce, which will probably be about 6 hours. I just recently received information from my program that I won't be living with the other ...

... that not only was it unattended, it was spewing gas EVERYWHERE. I frantically ran over, pulled out the pump, covering myself in gasoline and swearing profusely in the process, and realized that what was expected to be $12 in gas, was now $35 and I lost it. The entire gas station was flooded, I was now a walking tiki torch and with one spark Roseanne, me and this poor, lonely mans filling station were going sky high in flames. Jen casually strolled out of the store ...

... headed to the Arch. That was very cool. We got to hang out there, check out the museum and most importantly ride the tram to the top. Very cool view. After that we caught a quick dinner and then headed out for dessert at a pretty hot local spot called Ted Drewes Frozen Custard. It was very busy and good ice cream! That's all for today. We're having some fun and taking it easy tomorrow. Thanks for the prayers.

While I've been an avid reader of Travelpod for many years, I'm finally taking the plunge and for the first time tracking my own travel. I am leaving for New Delhi today and plan to hit a few spots in the Middle East including Dubai & Abu Dhabi. I'll do my best to update regularly. More soon!

... It's a restored 1879 two story train depot. The kids were able to get a good idea of what life was like at a train depot in 1880. The upstairs was set up for the family who ran the station in the 1880 area and it was really nicely done. We had a private tour and felt fortunate to have viewed the displays so up close and personable. The highlight for the kids was having ice cream at Clinton ...

... Madison was quiet. Suddenly Carmen screamed! The oxen got out of the harnesses and the wagon she was in started to roll backwards down the mountains! "Carmen!!!" Madison screamed. "Screaming won't help, Madison. You stay here and I'll chase the wagon." Noelle said, sprinting to the rolling wagon. She grabbed hold of the oxen harnesses and pulled with all her might. Once they were at the top, Carmen was safe.

... and hid in the wagon. We survived. The indians ran past us and looked over by the river. Madison, you just scare me sometimes. Noelle said, First you almost die in a forest fire, next you drink poisoned water, and now we almost get killed by a group of indians. Madison looked down sadly. But you're still my little sister. Noelle finished, laying Carmen in the wagon's right corner. Madison smiled and we continued our trip.

... get the butter. You find everyone else. Noelle ran to the wagon. By the time she got back, Noelle saw a bunch of people lying on the grass. They were all free, all exept Carmen that is. Noelle put the butter on Carmen's boot and she was free. Jones family, would you like to join our wagon train? Noelle invited. It's the least we could do since you saved our lives. Mrs. Jones said, looking at Carmen. You've got a deal!
