October Ends

 Life since Cedaredge has been a sweet recovery time.  Travel is so fun, but it includes a level of weariness that needs to be compensated for.  So I've been trying to rest up, with mixed success.  The Monday after we returned, Angelica called in a panic.  She had just driven the large Toyota that the kids share into a ditch, totally destroying it!  We rushed over, to find her standing out the car window in tears and surrounded by police and fire, standing ready to rescue and treat her for any injuries.  Their response to her emergency was quick and effective.  She had no injuries but a few scratches.  To see the site of the accident helped us realize the miracle of that.  She was protected.  We are so grateful for that!



Within the week Gerald had found a used car for them, online.  We used his recommendation and went to the Toyota dealership and purchased that very car.  It is smaller, but large enough to protect them.  Since then, Angelica drives with one of us in the car, until she is comfortable and competent again.

Life has gotten back to normal since then; a normal that always includes the normal changes of everyday life.  We celebrated Halloween at home, watching a spooky movie.  Angelica went out with friends but Seth watched the movie with us.  No trick-or-treaters came.  So sad what CoVid has done to us.  

This has been an unforgettable year.  We have been ravaged with a pandemic, leftist ideologies that threaten violence to those who dissent and demonstrations that have been destructive to individuals, communities and businesses.  It is a time to rise to defend our liberties and way of life.  I feel that not enough of us do that, including me.  The election of a lifetime comes up in just two days.  I have a fear that, no matter the outcome, life will become more difficult.  We are trying to prepare for that.

I believe that we have to defend principles of righteousness and these who support them, no matter the personalities involved.  May God help us to do that in sufficient numbers to save our nation and way of life.
