OCTOBER 19 - 22 ARRIVED SAFELY in FLORIDA

FRIDAY
OCTOBER 19, 2012
 
We started our travel day by 7:17 AM, from Dfuniak, Florida,
and by the time we had traveled one hundred twenty one  miles,
my cell phone was reading 10:36 AM.
NOT FAIR.
We had lost an hour by crossing into the Eastern Daylight Time Zone.  
Even with that time loss, we arrived at Southern Oaks,
in Summerfield, Florida,
by 3 :10 PM.
 
We were greeted by friends who
arrived a few minutes before us.
They had traveled South from Delaware,
and stopped for an overnight,
so we all could have dinner together.
 
It felt like a home coming party.
We have now completed Leg Four
of our 30th Anniversary Tour.
 
We have
driven 13,048 miles,
since leaving home on June 18th.
 
 
SATURDAY
OCTOBER 20, 2012
 
During the day we continued to sort
and weed out the travel literature
we have been accumulating these
four months.  We also sat still
long enough to prepare a slide
show of the first month of our travels.
 
We  have already forgotten some of
places and things we saw,
so it was fun to refresh our memories
and enjoy the sights all over again.

When Russ read on the internet that
the Indian Maiden
KATERI TEKAWITHA has been
declared a Saint,
I immeditely thought of the
three different statues
I had taken photos of this Summer.
 
Here they are again,
in her honor.
 
 
Shelton, Washington
St. Edward's Church

 
Page, Arizona
Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish

 
Santa Fe, New Mexico
The Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assissi
 
Which one is your favorite?
