Taking Over Culvers for the Last Time...

One of my favorite things to do is go out to eat with families after church (which you've seen on this blog) You may remember reading my joke about how I should get a discount for bringing so many families to a restaurant - well, either the owner of Culvers reads my blog, or the Lord moves the hearts of restaurant owners! Because at our last 'Culvers' after church gathering, the owner identified me as the 'ring leader' of this massive group, and asked the name of our 'group' - and next thing I know, I've got a BOX of 500 10% off VIP cards:

Now I'm the guy to know around church. :)

I passed these out to friends after church and then headed off to Culvers for my 'last Sunday meal' until after my sabbatical!

Off to Culvers with my fan club. ;)
(I didn't forget Sara, she left church early for the wedding shower of my little bro's fiance', who are being married on May 27th, the finale' of my sabbatical.)

Part of the gang, actually 56 people came for lunch!
We took over the place!!
(Manager said we ran them out of hot dog buns!)

Of course, dessert is what you come to Culvers for,
and the weather was beautiful! So we moved outside.

One of my Super Buddies who is
really going to miss me, and I'll miss him too!

Everyone is asking where we are going! Well, we will be visiting or passing through twelve states covering over 3500 miles (not counting the flight home from California) A more detailed itinerary will be posted when we leave. We ask for your prayer as we travel, and that the Lord will use this time for relaxation, rejuvination, refreshing, refilling, recharging, recooping, re... well, lots of things that start with 'RE' :)
