Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, NYC, Connecticut........its been quite a fortnight!

VIRGINIA

Ignite Academy in Virginia

We talked about how awesome Scotland is and the benefits of drinking IRN BRU over Coke!

We did also talk about Summer Internship opportunities with us across Eastern and Central Europe. 

It was the best response I have had during a lecture in America. These guys are amazing and I hope we get to work with all of them next summer and many summers after that also. 

Student Selfie - Christiansburg, Virginia. Four Square College.



KENTUCKY

South East Christian, Louisville, Kentucky

We got to hang out with Cody who played drums over the summer in our Exit Band in Estonia.

We re visited an old favorite from touring days.....Cracker Barrel ; )

We stayed with the brilliant Gary and Wendy Ottman who treated us to a shot on their ATV's at their blueberry farm, so much fun.


Had a great breakfast meeting with Ben Thornley and members of the Missions Committee from South East. Very impressed with the level of commitment from this church to missions. Incredible level of giving.


West Virginia

Got to live like rock stars for a few days ; ) 44 foot long tour bus was home for us in WV..

I toured across America on this bus between 2007 - 2011. It was a great experience and I made a lot of friends during that time right across the USA who are still friends today. In fact we are visiting a lot of them on this trip. It has been fun for my kids to stay on the bus for a few days and get to see what it was like for dad ; ) They absolutely loved it and want us to seel our house and live on a bus! 


The Earp's Farm

During our time in WV we spent a day with the last remaining relatives of Wyatt Earp! It was a great day with ATV's, Fishing, Horse Riding, sharing travel stories and missions adventures finished off with Apple Pie and Ice Cream.



On Sunday I spoke at Calvary Chapel Morgantown. I wore my new hat! lol.


We stayed on a trailer park over Halloween. 


Homeschooling was at Prickets Fort

Loved spending time with relatives of Wyatt Earp. Special people and new friends.

Next blog will be about Maryland, PA and our day off in NYC
