    Prayers up this endeavor works out great for them! If it eases your mind any, Wyoming REALLY warmed up yesterday, today, and tomorrow. I'm in SE WY if something comes up where I could help.

    thanks every one for the prayers for our grand kids, they made it over the pass and are in central oregon now. they drove for about 8 hrs. I took the oldest grandson and cut a load of wood to get my mind off of them for a while. I was so wound up i went back by myself and cut another load at 3 pm, was home by 6, GOD's been really good to us today, thanks again for all the prayers, they are going to need more. Every thing is going to be new and different to them real soon. New home, school, neighbors, city, you name it.

    Well, the grand daughter just called, they are close to wyoming , she said the kids have been doing great!! And, all 3 have been very good, THAT IS A REAL ANSWER to PRAYERS let me tell you. So, thanks for the prayers in the past, but, please keep praying for them, this is a huge move, one thing i thought of, IF they can pull this off, and get there, get settled in, and every thing taken care of, they'll probably be bonded like never before. I'm breathing a slight sigh of relief right now, but, its never over. Marriage is big commitment, and tough going at times. Things like this move will probably be one of the biggest things in their lives. Thanks again for all the prayers, keep at it, its working!!!!

    This is good for me too, i cut 2 more loads of wood today!!Went through a pretty good rainstorm, and then it got windy, i moved the pickup into the clearing, out of reach of the standing trees. Lots of them had broken tops from last nights wind. Yes i had a hard hat on. lol.

    Guess I'll post this, was at the post office today, ran into Tony, an old friend of mine. He was getting a change of address and renting a P.O. box. He shared with me that he and his wife had cleared the land and built their house together 30 yrs ago. He got the house paid off in December. Sometime recently, she told him she needed space, didn't want to be married anymore, she recently retired from teaching. She got the house, luckily for him, she left his 401k alone. He is lost right now, he has no idea why she wanted to leave him. They we're married 31 yrs. He asked me to pray for him, so I'm passing it along for help. He said he would take her back in a heartbeat. Really hit home with me as my hunny and I are working on 31 yrs and where and how would I feel if I was in his shoes....I know there are two sides to every story but.....

    That's a shame, what a bomb shell, thanks for passing this along ,i'll be praying for Tony as well, thank you for posting. We've done 50 and its had its up's and down's, still does. Tell him to ''keep looking up'' focus on God, and forget the monetary stuff, focus on God. I've had opportunities like this before, i just say, ''I'm going to be truthful with you, put it ALL in Gods hands, no matter what''. Lean on him, he's always there for you.

    This is perhaps one of the saddest cases. Terrible for sure. Will pray for Tony.

    To me it is funny how some folks look at marriage or maybe I'm just weird. Well, no doubt, I am weird. But when it came to marriage, I never felt any commitment nor did I ever feel I had to adjust and the same feelings were felt by my wife. We simply fit together and never had to "get used" to living together. It just has always seemed natural. It really hurts when we read and hear of others having problems, especially after being married so long. It was a blow to me when a brother told me he was getting a divorce after being married almost 20 years. I could hardly imagine... Fortunately my wife and I will be celebrating 57 years of marriage very soon and still happy and proud to say still in love. I could no imagine what it would be like without my wife. Pray for us that it continues!
