Will he make it from North Carolina to Oregon?

Saturday, May 15, 2010

Departure tomorrow!

The family brought me down to Wilmington today, and tomorrow morning I'll be leaving from Carolina beach.  Weighing in this morning: Bike is 40 lbs, Gear is 110+ lbs, Max is 170 lbs... This may be a humbling experience.

  3. I wondered as we dropped you off if there is any particular significance to the date 5-16. Two of the four gospels DO have apropos comments, but the one I like most for your departure is Luke's: "So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed." Someone commented to me, Max, how lonely it will be on your journey to Oregon. That would be true, except that I believe you mean to draw near to the Spirit of God, and He is faithful to draw near to you. I look forward each day to hearing from you about this adventure.
