Day 5 of our April 2009 vacation

A restful Sunday

We ended up sleeping in way late, and only Jamie and I had breakfast at the hotel before they closed it down at 10am, so we missed getting to check out that church.

We read that our church back in Aurora had so much snow they could not plow and shovel out the trailer so worship was lead by Bill with his guitair and Sierra with her bass - without any sound board, and Pastor Mark preached without a mike and thus no recording of his message. I was looking forward to downloading his message since we were out of state, so I'll ask friends about it once we get back home.

Beth, Todd and Abby continue to be with their AWANA friends today, two of which are participating in the fine arts competition - Josiah and Sarah Lydia.

Amy, Eric, Jamie and I went ahead and did our laundry to get ready for our travel day tomorrow to Myrtle Beach. We did not use any check-ons since it cost extra, so we packed light using only carry-ons, so we will need to do laundry a couple of times on this trip.

Since we've been eating out so much, we shopped at the store to make sandwiches for lunch today, and we must be getting used to this nap thing, as after lunch, all but Eric took a nap this afternoon. We woke up to a gentle rain outside.

At 6:15pm the electricity went out, and Amy had found in the newspaper a concert that started at 7pm so we went to that: Elijah by Felix Mendelssohn and it was wonderful by the Greensboro Oratorio Singers. The scripture was taken from 1 Kings chapters 17 and 18 and sung by 6 soloists and a choir of 35.

Watched some Iron Chef and Myth Busters (switching between the two stations) and went to bed at 1am :}
