The Weekend Dispatch 4/25/22

We must be cramming too much activity into these weekends because we sure have a bunch of pictures to show you. AND I am way ready for this weekend to end in a lazy Monday morning too.😍

Our main activities began on Thursday, but we had lunch with old and new friends at Wood Grill in Harrisonburg, Virginia Wednesday. We met Bro. John and Sis. Ann Gabbard and also Bro. Jonah and Sis. Tonya Dodd for a terrific meal and wonderful fellowship.

Thursday we drove the Jeep 438 miles home. We stopped for lunch at Golden Corral in Beckley, West Virginia and we took the only pictures from the whole day there.

Friday was yard mowing day. This picture may give you some idea of how tall and thick the grass was.

I mowed most of the yard twice with the rider and the front of Odie's house three times. KJo sprayed six gallons of weed killer on the gravel areas and did the weed eating and clean up.

We visited with my parents and sister for a while and also KJo's parents for a while. It was great to see them all.

My nephew Jonas dropped by too!

We MAY have had takeout from Acapulco twice Friday and Maybe one on Saturday and again on Sunday.

We rented a three yard dump trailer for Saturday. The guy dropped it off Friday evening. We had debris from various barn projects completed last year. We loaded it Saturday morning working kind of leisurely. It was nice to get it all in the trailer and throw in a few more items along the way.

Sunday morning we sang and preached at Dodds Church next door and Sunday night we sang and preached at Dryden Rd., our home church. We enjoyed both services and it was very good to see everyone. We had not been to Dodds since before Thanksgiving and our last service at Dryden was during revival on December 30.

That pretty much wraps up our weekend.

Thank you for hanging with us all the way to the end.

Our View Out The Front Window 4/24/22

Sunday Morning Sanity

Often, when facing adversity, our first thought is to pray, "Oh God, how can I get out of this horrible storm?"

But I submit for your consideration that maybe our prayer should be,

"Oh, God, what can I get out of this horrible storm?" DB

I do not have a new view out the bus window this Sunday, but I do have a nice view for you.

That was our view from the driveway late Thursday evening. Tune in tomorrow for the explanation.

Thank you for checking in today.

My Friend Mandi Morris

Hey Friends,

This is Odie checking in with you and I am here for another Saturday post. I am visiting my Beach Cottage! It is a good home for a few days. We needed to visit family and work on some projects. 

My Friend Mandi Morris

Today I want to feature one of my special friends, Sis. Mandi Morris. Please give her a virtual round of applause!👏 She is a faithful blog reader. I wanted to give her a special shoutout on her birthday weekend. Happy Birthday! 

I know my friend is happiest in the background serving others. Today she does not get a choice because she gets the spotlight for a moment. Mandi is an incredible lady and a fantastic friend!

We love you, Mandi! Thank you for being a friend to the Boggs Family! We can not imagine life without you being part of it!

Mandi says her favorite Mexican restaurant is our Alcapulco here in Ohio, but she has never been there in real life. She eats there via the blog when we are home. Mandi, I wish you were here with me today. We would give you an authentic Alcapulco birthday experience, sombrero and all!

Sis. Mandi and Bro. Jason Morris blessed me with a few fabulous selfies on my camera roll last month! I knew they would make excellent content for a blog post. 😊 I have been saving them for today. 

  

You can see that Mandi and Jason are quite the pair. There is never a dull moment when they are around!

Thank you for stopping by and reading. See you next week. 

Odie
