We got moved this weekend. We really appreciate all the help we have received from the congregation. Both this weekend for the move itself, and the past month as we were preparing the house to move in to. Now we can relax a little bit, but there are still more projects to do. So far we have been painting and working on the bathroom. I got the tub surround tiled and the shower plumbed. I am so grateful for the help from my dad and Mark on that project.
We decided to take a drive to see if there were any colors left. We got on the Blue Ridge Parkway at Brevard Rd. near Asheville and drove through the Great Smoky Mountains National Park ending up in Gatlinburg, TN. From Gatlinburg we took the most direct route home via I-40. We packed a lunch and stopped at a picnic area in the National Park. The short trip made for a relaxing day off.

We had our Deliverance at Hand District Convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Johnson City, TN June 23 - 25, 2006.
The peak attendance was 4,313 and there were 17 baptized.
[Update] We didn’t take very many photos, but here they are.
This past weekend we drove to the coast to explore Savannah, Hilton Head Island, and Charleston. We had never been to the area before and we wanted to get away for the weekend so we thought it would be a good time to go check out the coast. It was a cool and rainy weekend here in the mountains, and the weather proved to be excellent by the coast. It was mostly cloudy with some sun, but it rained only at night and was plenty warm. We are looking forward to returning to either Savannah or Charleston on another trip when we can spend more time. We thought we might like one place over the other, but it is a pretty even draw for us.
