MISSION: LOUISIANA DEPARTURE

Thanks for stopping by my Mission: Louisiana trip blog. There were ten of us along for the trip; four adults (Herb, Steve, Melissa, and Amy), four teenagers (Seth, Alecia, Faith, and Sara), and Deanna and myself. I didn’t really take time to journal for the travel days (there were four days alone of just “drive-time”). It sounds a bit weird, but it was really a great time. I really enjoyed getting to know the guys (we were split up male and female in our two Avis rental vans).

Steve is like having along a personal “walking-encyclopedia”; the information and facts never stopped! Herb added a special element of fun (and wisdom) to the trip, too. Seth was our “in-van” entertainment. We rocked out to David Crowder and friends, made light of Michael Jordan’s DVD (50+ hours of footage – we didn’t watch it all), and had hours of great personal conversation. I feel like we developed some pretty strong relationships just on the drive down.
