"Armadillo Crossing"in Texas



Well, you know you are in Texas when you see "Armadillo Crossing" signs!  I left Lake Whitney and instead of taking me on the freeway , GPS decided I needed to see the Texas Hill Country!  Who knew they had hills in Texas?!, It was beautiful and different.  Little towns, lots of ranches like you see in the old Western movies with the entrance gate with the cross bar on the top that says the name, lots of Mesquite (I think) short trees, cattle, goats and sheep, but very few horses.  The roads were great and 70 mph most of the way (except for the traffic lights in the towns) and very little traffic.
I arrived at 6:30 PM at my Cousin's who live in a gated community so couldn't stay at their house.  We had a wonderful visit and saw their pictures of their Hong Kong trip and their Paris and Italy trip (Last Spring), that they both took with their three children. I drove less than a mile to a Sam's Club and stayed the night (great view of San Antonio).

My Cousins picked me up to go to their Church (Summit Christian Center), which was just down the street, HUGE! With a Carousel inside!
Beautiful and lots of people fairly equally mixed, Hispanic, Afro American and Caucasian.  Good message, one I needed to hear.  He talked about the Dreams that God has placed within us, as the purpose He has for our lives.  We often hinder God's actions in our life, because we think he dreams are too big, we think they are impossible, someone discouraged us , we saw the obstacles and quit or, we think we are inadequate to carry them out. Well, we are inadequate! BUT God placed it in us, HE IS A BIG GOD, He can perform it, in and through us, if we give it to Him!
After Church, I went to Sam's Club and got water and some produce and left for Ft. Stockton.   
Didn't make it, stopped in Sonora, TX. at a very nice stop-over Park where I could hook up.  Only cost $22, and I met Mike, the owner, who was sooo nice, he helped me hook up and put me in a covered site because he thought it might hail with the storm that was supposed to come (so sweet), but didn't. We had a nice talk.

Beautiful sunshine today but windy 56 degrees, and I'm off to El Paso, Texas (hopefully).
EXCITING NEWS!  I just got a ticket to Eric Worre's Go Pro Conference, 20,000 Network Marketers in Las Vegas. I planned to be in LasVegas anyway and I will be in the same section as the other Shaklee friends, Woopee!!!
