Had a great time with my team from Foothills Community Church!

It was a rainy day! Their kids still had a great attitude and knocked on every door in the apartment complex.

The kids loved the crafts!

The face painting was a big hit!

Plus PUPPETS!

We crowded everyone into the mission. Had a great time on a rainy day!

Home now for admin duties.

Kathy and Ashley headed for Alabama to speak at a missions conference. Ashley has really been busy!

Enjoyed a fun lunch with Jesse and Kathy!


Later we went to meet Jesse’s new doctor. He seems like a good fellow!

Rest now and enjoying time with Kathy!

Who buys hubcaps like these?

I had a great time at the Local Missions Conference at FBC Atlanta on Sunday!

I saw this at the conference. Shocked me.

After the event, I went back to my house to pack the car and pick up Jesse and Kathy to go to Tybee Island.

We had fun together!

Also went to Bonaventure cemetery and rode around the Historic District.

I REALLY missed my bike! Got to see a bike race!

65 1/2mi loops! They were cranking it up!

The beach was beautiful!

Back home in awesome Stone Mountain!

This reminds me of me!

Bizarre.

I have my eye out for these guys.

Ashley and I had a fun time briefing our team this morning.

We shared about cultural Catholicism in Mexico. Took a trip over to Plaza Fiesta! Always bright and beautiful!
I liked my new mariachi hat!

Worked at Azalea Place with the kids.

Then over to Cumberland Court!

Came home to get ready for the Local Missions Fair at First Baptist Atlanta tomorrow morning. Jesse and Kathy and I are going to Tybee Island for a few days. Started packing for that trip.

Admin duties now.

Editing video of the team.

Ashley and I had a fun time giving our briefing to our new team from Brook Hills Baptist Church in Birmingham, AL!

We took them on a tour of the Buford Highway Farmers Market! Always fun and interesting.

Worked on a painting parking lot stripes project at New Peachtree Apartments.

Then over to the mission at Azalea!

Came home to work on my newsletter. Got it written, produced and emailed to our partner Joel Harrison to print up.

Admin duties now and spend time with Kathy.

We’ve been talking about a short trip to the beach next week. Sadly, it’s supposed to rain pretty much the whole time.

It’s Kathy’s Birth Day! Woot!

Ashley and I took a ride up to Marietta today to have a chat with Trey Sapp from Eastside Baptist Church and two other pastors, Josh and Fabio. We enjoyed great fellowship! Talked a lot about the ministry going on at the apartment complex on Delk.

Checked out some of downtown Marietta before heading back to Chamblee. Interesting visuals.

Did some shopping at Walmart before going to the mission to help the kids with their homework. I bought Ashley and Miles some plants for their deck. Ashley noticed something in one of the Hibiscus plants.

Got some new flip flops.

Ran 5.01 miles this evening. Actually got pretty dark before I got home. Not good. I liked this rose I saw on my route.

Admin duties now. Still need to write this month’s newsletter.

Watched Psych and the Duck Dynasty season finale in Hawaii. Fun!

Had a productive morning. Finished compressing and uploading the video that Ashley shot last weekend. Looks and sounds good!

I ate lunch with two new friends, Ricky Bowman and Jack Larson.

They’re interested in doing work at Forest Vale, an apartment complex in Norcross.

We met with the management at the complex. They were excited about us coming.

Prayed over the complex with them, then left to to meet up with Ashley at the ATT store.

Her iPhone was really acting whack. Fortunately, we were able to upgrade a couple of weeks early on her plan. So they’ll be sending her a new iPhone 5.

Finished ordering the phone and went to the mission to help the kids. Kept us busy!

Back home now to work on admin duties.

K and I watched “A Royal Affair” about the King of Denmark in the late 1700s. Pretty interesting!

I liked this sticker!

This was different.

The video from the conference that Ashley spoke at last weekend is on line!

You’ll enjoy listening to one of my favorite missionaries: ASHLEY!

Enjoy!

Worked on a new podcast today!

This is a GREAT episode.

What would you do? Listen to this! “Would Chopper!”
Just click on the title!

I also edited the video that Kathy shot of Ashley speaking in Nashville, TN! I finished the edit and it’s now processing. Then I’ll upload it to YouTube and put a link to it here on my blog! Never too much Ashley!

Ashley and I enjoyed lunch then did a recon of five different apartment complexes for Gold Rush in July.

After we finished setting up the five locations for teams, we went to Plaza Fiesta. I needed to get some more white paint for my shoes. My Dad gave me my shoes, so I try to keep them looking good.

Also picked up a new cable for my iPhone 5. It was shorting out.

Worked at the mission with the kids! Not too much work. The kids and I tried to clean up the mission a bit.

The dogwood by my office looks beautiful!

Not sure about this.

Some of these kids were in Jesse’s class at Parkview.

This is something that they do in Georgia that we never saw in Texas.

Kathy and Ashley got back safely this afternoon! GREAT!

Made a bunch of phone calls this morning. I’m always setting up stuff.

Got gas. Good price.

Picked up this shirt at Goodwill. I turned 20 in the Masai Mara.

Saw this in a store by Goodwill. I used to love my IBM Selectric.

Helped the kids at the mission.

I liked this.

This is outside the mission. I’m not sure what it means.

The kids stacked up some wood like a fort.

Picked up some groceries at Walmart. I saw some friends of mine there.

I mix my own bird see for zero waste.

Had supper with Kathy and Jesse.

Admin duties now.

Nearly a full moon.

This surprised me.
