Well, we are in our final week of preparation. Frannie has just about finished setting up her "sewing room" in the trailer and Bob is busy organizing the tools he will need for living "on the road" as well as participating in Habitat for Humanity "builds". We will be participating in 3 builds at the beginning of this winter starting in Pittsboro, NC on October 19th with two to follow in Sebring, FL and Vero Beach, FL.
We are working with a subgroup in the Habitat organization called "RV Care-A-Vanners". Members of that group participate in Habitat "builds' which are located in areas where housing for volunteers is not readily available. So, we bring our "houses on wheels" with us. We will set up in a common area and spend time working and eating together during our stays. We will tell you more about the specifics as we experience them ourselves.
We hope you return to this site often to read of our progress. Since we will be dependent on locating WIFI "hotspots" to connect to the internet our updates and responses to your emails may not be frequent. Be patient with us and we will respond to your emails as time, available connections and new updates allow.
Our anticipated "launch" date is Wednesday, October 15th. Please pray for our safe travel as we begin this adventure. The first leg of our journey will cover about 700 miles towing a 32' travel trailer. It's a crazy place out on the road so we would really appreciate your prayer support.
Here's a verse of scripture that is helping us and we hope will help you as well. It's found in Jeremiah 29: 11. "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Aren't those great words for all of us? And don't the ideas of "hope" and "a future" remind you of what this Christian experience is all about? God bless and we'll be talking to you again soon from "on the road".
