Complete Turnaround
The morning presented us with extremely ominous clouds and very windy conditions. As we loaded the trailer, the skies darkened and storm arrived. Ryan decided that a rain delay was necessary, and we waited in the church for the skies to clear.
We made the front page in Winchester!
Roller skates were utilized, Fuller-ball was played, and naps were definitely appreciated. We were presented with Winchester’s newspaper, which sported a picture of Kyle and Michael on the front page, working hard on the porch-roof from the day before. Krystal’s interview took up a huge portion of the article as well, and she showed off her people skills for all of Winchester to enjoy.

When 9:30 rolled around, we circled around Pastor Art Beasley, who presented us with a great devotion before our ride. And with that, we were off, the weather having completely turned around. The ride was just over 38 miles, though with the wind fighting against us, it felt much longer.

We were all smiles when we pulled into St. Clare Catholic Church, and a ridiculous amount of power bars were consumed. The church’s town, Berea, is a cute, quirky town with gorgeous hills and beautiful brick buildings. We went to the local RV park to take showers and returned to the church with high expectations for our spaghetti dinner (the dinner chore group did a great job). Now our exhausted little bodies are galavanting the streets, some going to mass, others doing the laundry, and some enjoying some down time. Oh yes, and Krystal is working beside me, extra hard. What a gal (wink, wink). To wrap this little session up, thanks to all you readers (or as they say here in the south, y’all) for checking up on us and for your continued support. So until next time, God bless.
Clean jerseys!

That jersey photo is AWESOME!
You got that right, Katherine. Who's the artist?
Fuller-ball?
"I can only imagine..." The artist of that Christian singer eludes me at the moment, but I can only imagine the emotions you all have as you endure this beautiful trek for those that you love without knowing!
That is a great shot of the clean jerseys. Reminds me of the chore groups Ryan so diligently assigns. He's really a great leader. Loving the updates, keep 'em coming!
...and what, pray tell, is Fuller Ball? Enquiring minds want to know!
