Vacation

My wife and I got back from a great bicycle vacation late last night. We traveled a little over 400 miles across the western part of ND. We had a little rain, some wind and two days in the mid 90's. We had level ground to hills. Hills that we were able to coast down at about 43 mph and others that we traveled up at a whopping 4.5 mph fighting for our breath and praying our legs would keep moving as they screamed in pain. At one point our leg muscles filed a law suit against us claim cruel and unusual punishment. The judge listen to their cry and made us get off the bike and walk up some 10% and greater inclined hills.

Over all it was a great ride meeting people from all walks of life. I was able to connect with 4 other pastors that were riding their bicycle for fun. Most of the towns we went through reflect better times in years gone by, yet the people need to hear the truths of who Jesus Christ is and what He wants to do in their life.

It is great to be back.
