We "met" briefly when you came to collect me so your dad could get more pictures. =) Haha, when I first saw this post I was like, hey! those are my pictures, how did they get them? Oh....yeah. ;) I had NO idea you had all that trouble with the keypads! That had to have been so frustrating!! The first I heard was Sat. morning, and then your mom came up to tell the guys that the problem was fixed. =P It was definitely an amazing day though. I wish I could hop on the RV with you and go to the rest of 'em! I heard that Chicago was pretty special. =) Stay safe on your travels! Hi Katie!

Don’t read it daily, but when I do sit down I read them all to catch up. Love your adventures and hearing about them. I agree completely with what you said, "While I can appreciate the desire to share the Truth, I wonder about the technique." It is such the truth. You all have a much more subtle way about yourselves. I believe those who know Jesus and who have stayed can handle hearing things in a more direct way. But those people who have never had a relationship with Christ need to get to know Christians first for who they are, build a relationship with them, share things about themselves while building trust in their relationship. It may take a lot longer this way but i feel it has led to build a foundation with the people. You don't have to tell someone that you are praying for them all the time you just did it. Pray that the right people are placed in their lives and when the time comes all the pieces start to unfold. This is what you have done with Mark, I know. He loves and respects all of you, especially John. It may have taken a long time, but I want you to know that i think Mark is becoming more open minded and thinking about things more. I know it has a lot to do with his father in the hospital, but I will take what ever. I love Mark so much. Even though Mark wonders about Christ and not sure what to think or believe he is a wonderful man. He leads his life to be a wonderful loving, caring husband and father. He would do anything for anyone. He is so caring, giving, and forgiving. He has a heart of gold. I am so thankful to God that I have him in my life. Please keep his parents and us in your prayers and keep up your subtle ways to share the word of God! XOXOXO Danielle Hi all Love reading your bog.

The closest I can imagine comparing the mountain driving to is when I went up Pike's Peak in 1991. I wasn't even driving, but I still remember how scary those non-guardrailed cliffs were and all the Hot Brakes Fail signs. But it was also incredibly beautiful... stay safe.
