D-Day Is Coming!

Departure Day is Sept. 5, three weeks from today.  It's amazing to think I will kiss Kim goodbye, get in my truck, and head out on a three-month odyssey!  Sometimes I think it has been more fun planning and dreaming and preparing than actually doing it!  Crazy, right?

As D-Day approaches I am filled with different emotions.  One is fear.  I fear the unknown.  Recently I camped in a remote area of the Cascades with no one around.  As darkness descended I didn't know if my anxiety was connected with wild animals or crazy people.  It was clear I was vulnerable.  Thank God for prayer and peace.  

That's what I expect on the road...experiences where I will depend on God.  May this be so for you on your life road.

Grace Always,
Dave

I applaud your decision to take this three-month adventure journey even though you feel some fear of the unknown. I understand that. I have those fears too, and some of them are not reasonable. I wish you the best and look forward to hearing about your travels. I am confident you will find this experience incredibly meaningful and memorable.
