Route 66 trip begins!

The day began early as my father-in-law(Gene) and I left Azle headed for Adrian, Texas.  Even though I had driven by Adrian before, I did not know of its significance in Route 66 history until this trip.  Adrian is the midway point on Route 66.  From Adrian it is 1139 miles to either Chicago or Los Angeles. It was interesting standing at the midway point today thinking about all the people who have passed by there since Route 66 opened in 1926.  Just today, whe eating at the Midway Cafe, we met people from New Zealand and Australia.  And that was just in one hour!  Isn't it amazing how many different people God brings into our lives?  Some are there for only a brief moment. Some are there for a few months or years.  And some are there for a life time.  Where they come from and where they go, we don't always know, but we have the opportunity to be a blessing to them for as long as we are together.
