It was another beautiful sunny day here in SC. Wearing a coat was not an option. Fanning myself in the vehicle after church was. I love, love, love living here. Even when it rains, it's nice. After living in Central NY for 15 years, seeing the sun again is amazing. For those of you who have lived there for your whole lives, there are other states. 49. I know, you have family and friends, a church, job, house. All very good reasons to stay. But traveling is always fun. I met a wonderful couple today from Central NY. In fact, they go to the same church I attended when I lived there. They know tons of the same people that I know. They are not even in their 60's, and are already retired. Isn't that amazing? So, they are in Myrtle beach for 3 months. They got in touch with me, and I told them how to get to my present church. We had a sweet time of fellowship. It was great hearing about some of our friends back home. I am blessed and excited to see them again. Isn't that what it's all about? Hanging out with fellow believers? Helping each other? Praying for one another? It was a good day. Then of course, topping the whole morning off, I got to sit in the coffee shop and talk to Carmon. It was almost like having her right there at church with me. And one day, I know she will come back for a visit. She has already been down here twice since we moved here. And I have been up twice. She was home schooled most of her life, but now sends her kids to school. Her father-in-law is a retired principle of the school district they live in. How funny is that? So, her children are thriving and learning andf growing. I have friends that homeschool, public school, and private. I am thankful to live in a country where we even have an option. I am thankful that I got to go assemble in a building and worship God. There were no guards with machine guns blocking the doors or arresting people who claimed to be Christians. It is a freedom and a blessing.I am grateful to live in this country.

I hope that many of you can travel this spring and summer to come and visit us. We always feed our guests well. And we have a wonderful church that you will just love. It is alive, and thriving! And if you don't know Jesus, I just know you can find Him there.

And remember, anyone can leave comments on this site. It is really quite easy. And, you can remain anonymous. I know many people have been visiting, and by the location map, a lot of people in Maine. I just want to thank you for visiting my site. It is a place where I write pretty much whatever is on my heart. I am pretty busy these days, but am trying to be a bit more disciplined about reading more blogs, and writing more of my own. With the help of more experienced bloggers, I hope to make my site a bit more interesting. I would like to have some links and photos and other things. In time. Well, I need to sign off and watch the super bowl. I sure hope it is an exciting game. A lot of super bowls are wipe outs. Hopefully, this one will be close. I know that I lived in New England, and NY. So I'm not even going to tell you who I am rooting for. I am a Colts fan, but since they aren't in it, I will root for someone else. Enjoy, and eat snacks.

Yes, we are very blessed to live in this wonderful country. I'm so glad that you are enjoying living in SC. We spent a week there a few weeks ago and had a wonderful time. If you ever want to take a road trip to see the NC mountains let me know. : ) (only a short 4 hours from you)
What a great superbowl. We had fun watching it, even though we weren't feeling quite well, yet.
Happy Week!
Julie
