New Horizon Holiness Church

Yesterday was spent taking care of errands and business but lunch was not neglected. We ate at a little place right across the street from Bethany Revival Center.  

It is a buffet of pretty authentic Mexican food called Los Reyes and it was pretty good. It was by far the best local Mexican food we have ever had in Wichita. 

And it is right across the street from the church!

Last night we went to church at New Horizon Holiness and had a wonderful time. Pastor Marlin Rogers insisted that I preach so I did the best I could. 

I am not sure how it sounded but I felt great trying. That's not the best way to judge preaching though. Lol But I really enjoyed preaching last night. 

It was so good to see the folks again. They are very dear to our hearts and it is always great to be able to worship with them and to visit with them. 

I appreciate Bro. Rogers and the folks receiving us so warmly. It means so much to us. God bless you all.

We also had a pretty special thing happen Wednesday. I can not explain it all here but it was tremendous for us. 

God answered a very specific prayer for our family yesterday. It is something we have prayed about for well over 12 years. Hallelujah! God is faithful and righteous!

It is amazing to watch God work. He may not come when you want Him but He'll be there right on time. He's an on time God, Yes He is! Praise God!

We hope to spend time with some more special friends today. Have a great day!

Travel Day - Pender, Nebraska to Wichita, Kansas

Long, long day and short, short post. 

I rolled out of bed at 6:00 to get an early start but the weather had different ideas. That was quite a storm. There have been several times that I had to hook up in the middle of a storm but this morning I had choices and I chose to wait out.

The sun came out a few hours later and we hooked up the trailer, loaded up the car and hit the road.

Fast forward 400 miles through the absolutely beautiful scenery in Nebraska and Kansas and before we knew it we were pulling into Wichita. We dropped the trailer at New Horizon, parked the BoggsMobile at Bethany Revival Center, visited a few minutes with friends and then went for supper.

We had never been to this HuHot but Kelly Jo has been craving it for a few days and she was glad to see they had opened one in Wichita. They did not have an ounce of wasabi in the store (What's up with that?) but it was still very, very good.

Odie was smiling so it must have been good!

Good night. God bless you all.

Fickle Weather and Great Customer Service

Wow! What a toad strangler we had here this morning! In fact we had two nasty looking storm systems blow through Pender, Nebraska before 10:00. Didn't it rain, children, didn't it rain!

The water piled up on Odie's wheel chair cover. 

I was sitting outside early this morning waiting on the tech from Blue Ox to pick up my tow bar. I was reading and had not been paying attention to the sky. Well, the sky opened up and all the water fell out. 

I grabbed my chair and threw it in the car and I rode out that squall in the front seat. It was a wicked storm with lots of huge thunder claps. I took the picture above after that front passed. 

The sun came out, the sky cleared, the temperature went up and then it rained another bucket load all over again. 

Wow! You talk about fickle weather! That reminds me of something Kelly Jo and I have laughed about for years. 

We grew up in southern Ohio and heard people make some version of the following statement all our lives. 

They would say, "The weather in Ohio is different than any where else. If you don't like the weather here just stick around 15 minutes and it will change."

We started traveling soon after we were married and found that folks say that every where. After we heard the same exact statement in about 5 different states it was all we could do to keep from busting out laughing. 

After hearing the same thing in about 30 states from people that absolutely believe in only applies to their area we just chuckle and grin. The weather may be different but people are the same every where.  

This picture is a sample of the pretty weather we have had all afternoon. 

What, you don't like sunshine and blue skies? Well, hang around about 15 minutes. Here in Nebraska, it will probably change! Lol

We are staying in Pender another night. The tech was covered up today with tow bars to work on. On top of that, mine had some special problems they had to deal with. 

Because of that they did not get finished and get me cashed out until about 3:00 PM. We would have been 4:00 leaving so we decided to leave tomorrow. 

They really took care of my tow bar here at the Blue Ox factory. They believe in customer service enough to actually put it into practice. 

My tow bar is too old to be as good as new but it is as close as it has been in a long time. Plus it has a bunch of new parts! The cost? $25 + tax. 

Great service + Great attitude + Great price = A Great Deal. 

I have always liked the Blue Ox towing system and now I have even more reason to like them. I have been a loyal customer but they have cemented that loyalty with great service. 

That is a rarity in today's world.
