I guess it is true that time
goes faster as you get older. We will be
leaving Morro Bay on March 9, and yet it
seems we just got here. We are in our normal
rush of trying to see friends and have a
meal with them before we leave. Marilyn has
tried to do more entertaining in our rig
this year. We definitely provide ‘close
fellowship’ as our guests are seated at the
table and then become our ‘captives’ for the
duration of their visit.
So what have we done in
Morro Bay? We have attended two weekly Bible
studies, the Sunday services at church, and
Glen has been part of the choir, but mostly
we have simply enjoyed the beauty of God’s
marvelous creation.
One morning we awoke to snow
on the mountains and yet the ocean was just
as beautiful as ever. Glen captured this
picture (below) with snow covered mountains
and people enjoying the shore in short
sleeved shirts.
We have also enjoyed eating
at restaurants that had beautiful views to
enhance our meals. We definitely enjoyed the
food way too much, but we had wonderful
fellowship with dear, dear friends at the
same time.
Unfortunately, we also
learned the route to the ER as Marilyn’s flu
seemed to be getting out of hand. The ER
staff were very kind and helpful in
providing guidance and medication, and now
she is definitely on the mend. Glen had the
flu as well, but his recovery seemed to come
more quickly.
We know this is a
financially difficult time for many,
including members of our own family, and we
are praying that God will protect us all and
that our political leaders will take the
wisdom that God is providing for them. God
has continued to impress us of how important
it is that we continue to pray for God’s
blessing, guidance and continued provision
for this country.
We are beginning to plan our
itinerary for our trip East. We are hoping
to visit many of our friends in Texas this
time as well as relatives in Arizona,
Michigan, Indiana, and Kansas. We plan to be
in Redlands from March 10 to March 24 and
then begin to head East. It is our hope that
we will be in New Jersey by the end of June
after a visit with our relatives in and near
Indianapolis and a visit to Marilyn’s
primary care doctor.
As is our custom, Glen has a
beautiful sunset picture to share with you
(below). He took this on February 25, 2009.
Much love in Him,
Glen and Marilyn Heavilin
