The Buffalo Wilderness and Mr Ghadi

I'm sorry for being slack at updating. I guess I'm still on Ghana time. Anyhow, upon my return from Africa My dad and me set out on a 3 day canoe trip through the buffalo wilderness in norther Arkansas. It was really beautiful, and we saw all sorts of wildlife including a bald eagle, otters, mink, deer, and raccoons. Unfortunately, my camera is broken after a spill it took, but you can check out some of the pictures from my dad's camera here!

Since then, I've been at home for the past 2 weeks. It's been great hanging out with my family and just relaxing. I also got to meet our neighbor, Mr Ghadi. He's Hindu, and a little hard to understand. But, he has a temple in his house, and he allowed me to see it. I had to wash my feet before going in to look at all his Gods. He tried explaining it all to me but like I said, He's a little hard to understand. The real amazing thing to me is that he prays 3 hours every day. It makes me feel like a real slacker when I have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, but have trouble staying focused more than 5 minutes and other people around the world dedicate 3 hours to a statue of a lady with 9 arms and an elephant head.

Whats next? Well, Be praying that Rob finds a place to live for us in Colorado. He's been working hard and I know he's busy. I wish i could have gone and helped him. I'm headed to SC next for a couple of weddings, I'm really excited about seeing a lot of my friends. After that, i think its time for me to head west!

Peace and Love
