Gatlinburg Trip

We took a group of students to Gatlinburg to see our friend Bill the Mormon. (not really) We are having a retreat at an unbelievable cabin in the mountains. Mike Landrum is leading the Bible Study and Matt Oakley is leading worship. They are doing a great job.
This trip has had its share of 1sts. This is the 1st time I’ve had a student show up that didn’t sign up. I had no idea he was going until he brought his stuff. Thankfully we had enough room, but that was a crazy. Then just before we got to Gatlinburg one of our students hurled all over the 3rd row seat in the van.
Then our cabin was trashed so we had to wait before we got to it but it is great. However they didn’t leave us enough towels or sheets and I called 2 weeks ago to see what we needed to bring. I hate incompetency! Above is a picture I took (yes while driving) of a truck that was advertising for drivers. The ad says guaranteed home on weekends. Does anyone else find it funny that it says that yet the driver is working on Sunday? When did Sunday not be considered a weekend?
We will be having a great week here and maybe I’ll go see my friend Bill the Mormon.

You’ve got to go see Bill! You’ve just got to! Be sure to tell him Steve said hello…and we miss him!

You are a brave man, now I can’t wait to read your article about risks!
