A GREAT Surprise Weekend!

Hello everyone. Sorry I missed a post for yesterday. I started out Saturday morning in Murfreesboro, TN and drove non-stop to Norcross, GA, just outside of Atlanta. My delivery wasn't due until Monday and instead of sitting here over the weekend again, I rented a car from Enterprise and drove down to Orlando to surprise my wife. Boy was she happy to see me.

I arrived at home around 7:00 PM that evening. After church on Sunday morning we went out to lunch with some friends. Back home to change and then by 3:30 PM its back to Georgia. I arrived back in Norcross, GA around 9:30 PM.

A really great weekend off that totally surprised my wife. See you back here tomorrow.

Sitting Here in Norcross, GA

Not a whole lot happened today. Just sitting here in Norcross, GA (a few miles NE of Atlanta off I-85). I woke up this morning and read a few of the Psalms and then another chapter in the book "The Exemplary Husband" which I mentioned the other day.

Then my sister called me about 11AM. She and her husband live about 40 minutes away in Woodstock, GA. They had just gotten out of church and will drive over and meet me for lunch. A few blocks away was Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen and the food there was excellent! I had the Seared Blackened Alaskan Halibut in a garlic butter sauce with grilled green beans and a Caesar salad. Wow, that was good!

After lunch we just hung out and talked for about another hour and then went for Bruster's Ice Cream for a cool refreshing treat. They dropped my back off at the truck around 4PM.

Spent a few hours on the phone with my lovely this afternoon/evening and that about summed up my day. Another day of sitting and waiting. Tomorrow I'll get unloaded and back on the road to somewhere. Hopefully I'll have a better week with more miles.

Stay tuned...
