I was hoping I could go, but as I told Vanessa, for many reasons, I can't this time. Hoping I can make the trip next year. Have a safe trip--can't wait to hear all about it!

I have kept you in my prayers since I first heard about this project. You are awsome. Prayers that you find a good driver and many are blessed.
