Log Entry: Wednesday 10/10/18 Part 1

Well Tuesday (10/9/18) night, I went to bed early so I could get a little sleep before we had to leave at 5:00 am for Kabwobe, which is actually southwest, TIA.   That plan didn’t work out too well because there seems to be something in a closet in my room that has a very dusty smell. Kampala is unbelievably dusty in general but this in my room gave me a dry cough, which meant I spent Tuesday night coughing instead…

Tuesday (10/9/18) I went around Kampala checking out bus options for Aslan Roars’ May trip to Uganda.  Check this one out!  Believe me, you don’t see something like this every day in Uganda. Upon arriving home, I was told we will be headed west to Kabwobe at 5:00 am Wednesday morning so that I can preach at 10:00 am.  I better get some sleep!

Log Entry: Sunday 10/7/18

Sunday was a day to learn. The day started off as only a day in Africa can start. I was to be at a church at 8:00 am to preach two services. First thing, my driver was late getting up, all the guys stayed up late watching soccer. We needed to leave by 7:15 and at 7:25 he is finally getting ready. At 7:30 we find out the vehicle won’t start, battery problem. At 7:40 we call a taxi, taxi…

I left off just as I discovered that we will be traveling at night to a small town called Aduku which is about four hours to the northwest. We are going to travel in a small SUV, a Rave.  The African version of a Rave is even smaller then the ones that we have in America.  There are five of us stuck in this thing; two in the front seats and three in a SMALL back seat. Well here we…

The weather is is great, cool at night and in the mornings. Temperatures are around 80 at 10:00 am and very nice in the shade. I’m having fresh pineapple for breakfast with my coffee.  Now don’t you wish you were here? But in the spirit of full disclosure, I had my first COLD shower this morning.  I don’t remember the water being quite so cold, brrrrrrrr!  I was doing the Hokey Pokey for sure.  You know the kids song: You…

Log Entry: Amsterdam 8:20 am It’s been two years since I’ve been in the Amsterdam airport and, man, it has really changed.  I feel like I’ve walked all the way across Amsterdam! Well, this trip has started out pretty cool.  Yesterday at the Atlanta airport a young man stopped me since I was wearing clerics and ask me to pray for his family.  His niece’s young son, Orlando, had become very ill and it looks  like he might not live. …

Leaving On A Jet Plane…

…don’t know when I’ll be back again. Actually I do know that…I just don’t know any details. 🙂  But I’m getting ahead of myself. A friend suggested that I should start posting again, especially since I’m going back to Africa in October. I’m not sure what these postings will be like or even what they will be about, maybe a little of everything.  So stay tuned to the website for posts and even more. The person who keeps up my…

You Were Where?

You Were Where?

Well, it’s been a long time since I’ve written anything for my blog/website and there have been a lot of things that have happened since last August, for sure. Here’s the story of one of my little adventures. I was supposed to go back to Africa in April 2015 but, four days before I was to get on a plane to Uganda, I ended up in the emergency room. I was with my son at a small festival in midtown…
