Today is the day. The Caravan (15 cars in all!) left VBC at 6:40 this morning. Everyone showed up bright and early (4:30am) and did the last minute sign-ups and preparations before hitting the road. Actually someone slept in and showed up at 6:30 but we won't name her, as to not embarrass her! The drive down was smooth and uneventful.
As you can see, we represented the proud nation of Canada on the way. Spencer Colvin and Peter Rapine attached the flag to the Durango at VBC this morning, and contrary to popular predictions, the flag made it all the way to Kingman! Speaking of Kingman, we got here at 7:15pm. The drive was great and we made it safely without a hitch. Well, technically some of the cars have hitches but they were built that way and caused no problems en route. Borax, one of our favorite stops along the way, was
unseasonably mild (only 100 degrees or so) and was a nice refuge for our lunch stop. Tony and Nick can be seen basking in the majestic beauty of Borax's pristine wilderness. We will be spending the night in Kingman and will hit the road early tomorrow morning. Thank you for praying for us! We love you guys and miss you all!

borax is such a beautiful place.
dan & mel-thanks for praying, i'll update my blog if anything changes once i'm in frankfurt.
My prayer for you all this morning (July 21) was for continued protection and stamina. Above all, felt led to pray for UNITY of mind, heart, and spirit in Christ in regards to your service to the Navajo and each other.
"Now may the God Who gives the power of patient endurance (steadfastness) and Who supplies encouragement, grant you to live in such mutual harmony and such full sympathy with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, that together you may [unanimously] with united hearts and one voice, praise and glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Welcome and receive to your hearts one another, then, even as Christ has welcomed and received you, for the glory of God." Romans 15:5-7 Amplified Version
Blessing to you all!
