One Thousand Miles!!

2014 December 15
by Greg & Lyn

Yes, today we passed the 1000-mile point since we left home in MD. It may not sound like much for how long we’ve been gone but when you are moving at 7 miles an hour that’s a lot!! I told Greg he traded 70 on the beltway for 7 on the Waterway. We are still learning to slow down. We realized that it’s the first time since Kindergarten that we haven’t had a schedule. If there is something we want to do or see or some weather we need to wait and let it blow through we still have to remind our selves that it’s OK to slow down and just enjoy!!

This past weekend we picked up a mooring ball at the Titusville Municipal Marina. We got in Sat afternoon and Mark Honeck and his wife Holly, one of Greg’s roommates from the Naval Academy, who live in Orlando, drove over and we spent the evening catching up. It had been a long time and it was fun to see them. Then we found a PCA Church and rode our bikes across town the next morning and worshiped with them. We spent Sunday afternoon in the screened in lounge of the marina where Greg watched a football game and got some work done on computer stuff while I got some laundry done. After dark we rode back in by dinghy and walked through the Lights of Hope in the park next to the marina. There was a live Nativity put on by the youth group of a local church with the gospel presented through the music video Mary Did You Know. It was a fun evening…celebrating the Christmas season.
