A Drive Down the Gorge


Last weekend we drove out to the Yakima Indian Reservation where Jose was invited to preach to a Spanish-speaking congregation. We didn't even feel the three hours pass by as we drove out there - it was so beautiful! Makes me want to stay in this part of the country, despite Jose's pull towards Texas...

More opportunities for ministry w/ Spanish speakers, more job possibilities, cheaper living, and he knows a few people at my home church, and one of his former Bible school profs lives in Mesquite...

~just me~ said...

you sound so surprised, Glenna. :)

and how come no one else likes slinky nighties!?

Glenna said...

Kari, I am surprised. I can't see, for the life of me, wanting to live in Texas. I mean, there are a few things about Texas I like, but I wouldn't move here just for them ya know.

Oh, and where did the slinky nighties come into it?

~just me~ said...

slinky nighties: the poll --ther's nowhere to comment on the polls, so you gotta do in other random places. :)

LOL, oh, ok. I like slinky nighties, just not to sleep in ;) . I worry too much about being woken up in the middle of the night by kids.

Funny, I didn't imagine this to go on as a slinky nightie conversation, but aint it grand? I do so adore pajamas of all kinds! Slinky nighties...Hmmm..so that was YOU Kari! I was wondering who it was...! Yay for Chris. Jose calls my pajamas "rags". :) He WISHES I were the slinky nightie person! Ha! But like Glenna, I want to SLEEP when I go to bed!

And yeah...I don't know about Texas...no offense. I suppose there still are some friends there (like some of you), but also many memories I'm trying to erase! And yeah, not to mention the weather and the terrain! Ugh! I could do East Texas maybe, or some place fun like San Antone! :)
