Around the World in Truck


Sandy and I went to a dinner party in Pasadena celebrating Noble Trenham’s trip around the world fifty years ago (1959-1962). They drove 80,000 miles for a total distance of 110,000 miles (including the water trips), hitting all 6 Continents. What a story they told (he went with one other person). They brought the truck for display. This is kind of like our trip in 1976 across the western United States...right guys?





Here we are at a Dodger game a few years ago...

Africa and Atheists

        
I have a good friend who is giving up his medical practice to become a missionary/teacher in Malawi, Africa. He’s gently prodding us to join him, but I don’t think we’ll join him for various reasons--as much as I think the work would be rewarding. He came to mind when I read this article this morning and thought I’d share the article as a good thought for the new year...

Title: As an atheist, I truly believe Africa needs God

CORRECTION:... Becoming a missionary in South Africa. (He’s been going to Malawi, Africa for the last few years...)
