It's taken a lot to get used to traveling. When we camp, we keep it very simple. Usually we bundle into the tent when it starts getting cold and we eat out or boil hot water and add it to ramen, oatmeal, coffee or tea. We've been eating fruit and lots of snacks. One of the reasons we do this is because there are so many moving parts while traveling. It's the hunting and gathering aspect of traveling that we are still getting used to. So, once we get to a campsite the last thing we want to do is build a fire and keep it burning. I told Erin it doesn't feel like "real" camping so now he says we are fake camping....
After we stayed one night in Red River we headed for the forestry and picked out a site. We were so blessed to have Austen and Chandler drive all the way from Ward, CO to camp with us. What an awesome weekend!!! They made a fire, cooked food for us and completely ministered to our needs while we were together. We spent Saturday hiking and enjoying each others company. There's just something special about visiting and praising God around a campfire. I am so thankful they came to hang out with us. Lord willing we will be able to see them again. As we head through Colorado we hope to make it to their house. God has really been providing Divine appointments at just the right time. He is able and His timing is perfect. Thank you again Austen and Chandler. Love and blessings!
Until next time,

in1964 while camping in Red River The Lord placed a party from there on my heart, it is still there, and will continue. A few miles down the road is Eagle nest and then "Angel Fire' a place like no other in the lower 48, the Angels light up the sky each evening, just thoughts and wish we were with you'll.
Love and Prayers , T&T
