Last weekend we headed to Georgia from North Carolina, a good six hour plus trip.  In the car were one old great-grandmother, one toddler, one seven year-old and one nine year-old and two crazy missionaries.  We were on our way to a meeting with an entourage.   It may not have been the best planned activity of our furlough.  It may not have been with no tears and all smiles.  It was an adventure, and hopefully one our grandchildren remember with fondness in years to come. The church meeting went off without a hitch.  We managed to keep them all fed and fairly clean.  We even went to a safari type zoo and stopped to visit quickly with friends on the way back to Carolina. We have worked hard to "make core memories" on this furlough.  We can only hope and pray that God will bless our efforts with interest in the future. In the meantime we look forward to a few more days with lot of holiday fun before we head back to Brazil.
