Eventful Trip

Well, we're home from Winterplace, WV. The youth had a great time skiing. I just went up to see the snow. But, boy, was it an eventful trip home.
To start with, we woke up Sunday AM with 3-4 in. of snow and it was still snowing. It was BEAUTIFUL!! The kids loved playing in the snow. WE hit the road at 9:30 AM and boy was it freezing. Yes, that's right, the heat on the bus did not work. We got about an hour and a half down the road and the bus broke down. Not sure what the problem was but we were able to coast and partly drive to the next exit to a gas station. WE were there 2 1/2 hours. Daniel and one of your other leaders drove the other guy's car into town to find a church. They ended up at FBC Hillsville, VA. Church ended and they talked with the preacher there who hooked them up with a couple willing to drive us part of the way to meet some of our church folks. So, we left and headed toward Charlotte. We met up with our church people about 30 miles south of Charlotte - and arrived back at our church by 9:00 PM.
YES! The bus is still in Virginia. Someone is supposed to be going to look at it to see what's wrong.
God protected us and brought us ALL home safely. The teenagers and leaders all had great attitudes and we had no major issues. It was a great trip despite the problems. It was fun and inspiring to see a whole new part of God's creation - the mountains, the snow, etc. He is SO GOOD!!!
