Road Trip Adventure 7-9-2022

 I received an invitation in the mail from South Tulsa Baptist Church where my Uncle Philip (my Dad's brother) & Aunt Mary Ann serve as Ministers of Music and Children's Ministry. Their title doesn't begin to describe all they do! I decided right then I was going to attend. I began to plan when we would leave and come home. 

My Uncle Bob (Mom's brother) and Aunt Cindy live in Wichita, Kansas. About 2 1/2 hours away from Tulsa I thought it was to close to not try to see them as well.

Mom and I left Friday morning headed for Wichita. We had a good trip although Mother questioned my GPS's navigation when it took us off the interstate. All was good for a while as even though it was 2 lay road it was smooth and I enjoyed driving through farming country. Then the road changed to GRAVEL! Being a little unsure myself I decided to stay with it before we knew it we were in the middle of farm land on a DIRT road with no signs! I had to take a picture because I didn't think anyone would believe me! We were too committed at this point to turn around. The GPS kept telling us we were really close to our destination so I pressed on! We did make it. Mom and I both had a really good laugh. I think I told her at the point we were on a dirt road to just look at it as an adventure! It definitely makes for a great story!


The extra bonus in seeing Bob and Cindy is that we got to see my cousin Marci's oldest daughter Lucia! I hadn't seen her since she was a little girl! She didn't know us but wanted to see us! That thrilled my heart. She was so delightful to get to know and spend time with.

Cindy took this picture for us before we left Saturday.

Once again we are grateful for their hospitality! We had a great time!

Have a good one!
