Halloween on the Road







































When you have a meeting on Halloween night, there's not much hope of trick-or-treating. Forget the fact that you're already over-age for that sort of thing, and you have no children with you as your excuse, but you can't go because you're working. Well, when you're on the road, have a little extra time and no where to go, you might just get creative with some crayons and your dinner plates from the restaurant you just ate at. When Amber and I realized we had a whole hour before we had to be at the meeting, our creative juices started flowing, and we came up with a way to get costumes and trick-or-treat. Amber ended up going as a Pumpkin, and I was a Pig, tail and all. We made it to about 5 or 6 houses, and had half a bag full of candy to share with the boys who followed us in the van before the meeting. What a great Halloween! We also got to carve a team pumpkin and roast the seeds a while back so I posted the pics here with the other Halloween fun.

Dearborn, Michigan: the REAL Ford Country





























Our amazing friends in Ypsilanti, MI, Eric & Sherry, set us up with tickets to the Ford Rouge factory where they assemble all their F-150's, the Ford Museum & Greenwich Village, where Ford brought in all kinds of historical buildings and Model T's are still driving around. It was so much fun, and a 'have to' they say, when you're in Michigan. Eric works at Ford, so it was even more fun getting to see a little of his world. We also got to spend some time on the University of Michigan's campus sharing the gospel with students. It's great and refreshing to be able to share the gospel with students when we work with Christian groups most of the time we are on the road. We got to see the first Mustang, the actual bus Rosa Parks sat on, The chair Lincoln was shot in, the farm house Henry Ford grew up in and a remake of the original Henry Ford motor company building from downtown Detroit. Enjoy the pics!
