I had a real upset stomach last night. Kathy hasn’t been sleeping well. She’s pretty worried about me going on this trip to Africa. Sounds like we are going to be WAY out in the bush. I reckon there’s cause for concern.

I stayed home this morning to take care of Kathy’s mom.

Finished the last of my packing of my video equipment. It’s unbelievable to me how that tiny little camcorder can get such great pictures—equal to all that heavy gear I used to carry around for WTOC in Savannah!

Kathy and I watched “the Life Aquatic” with Bill Murray. It was funny in a quirky way.

I’m going to try and go to sleep early since I didn’t sleep well last night.

Tomorrow we head to AFRICA! Man. It’s been a long time–over TEN years since I’ve been back.

It’ll be a while until you hear from this blog. Make sure and scroll down to February 02 for a day by day account of what we’ll be doing.

Peace.

Ashley and I met with a group from Toccoa Bible College to talk about urban ministry. We had a good time as I discussed with them what their dream ministry would look like. We enjoyed sharing our vision for Clarkston while we ate roast goat!

I took Ashley over to Best Buy to get her a radio for her car. The other one stopped working years ago. The new one sounds great!

Later I went over to Carl and Pat Barrington’s house where we did our final packing for the trip to Niger.
