Jaci had her wisdom teeth taken out a while back so I know what you're going through with Scott. Jaci did pretty good and by the next day was almost herself again and she doesn't handle pain well.....hopefully Scott will get along as well as Jaci did.
Sandy, I know that you're excited about your house but if you can....take your time and don't get too stressed. Stress takes a lot of the fun out of things. Hugs!!
Gayle, I had to laugh at the thought of you wrestling Gary to the ground to get him to wear his oxygen!!! I'd like to see that one!!!! I'm sure that packing to go with Gary is a lot like going with a baby......you feel like you have to take everything even if you might not use it.......just in case!!! You'll have a blast once you get there!!! I hope the hunt is successful for Gary as well!!
Jessica.....good luck on your tests. Gayle had a great suggestion about talking to the teacher about the test and knowing what parts to study.
Janet, It sounds like eerything is going pretty good on cleaning your Mom's house. Sometimes when the auctioneer has a small auction he'll put two of them together so more people will come. You might want to check and see if that's a possiblility.
We're home.....we're home!!!! We had a great time in Eureka Springs with the seniors from church!!!! I ended up being the youngest one.....with my bil, sil, and our pastor and his wife being close to our age. The rest were older but sill a lot of fun!!! We went shopping after we had checked into our motel. Then we went to a music show in the evening. It was good and the performers were so talented at playing so many instruments but there was one man that really stuck out and he sang "Arlington" that's sung by Trace Adkins and he sounded JUST like him!!!
The next day we drove around Eureka Springs and went to a hotel that was haunted. No, we didn't see any ghosts....nor did I expect to....but the design was just beautiful and I enjoyed seing the antiques around it. It was the Crescent Hotel.
Then we drove out to the Passion Play and took a walking tour where people dressed up as characters from the Bible did a little talk about themselves. It was soo hot but so interesting!!! We also saw a Bible museum that was there......and they had some Bibles from the 1500's and one page from an original Guttenburg Bible worth $100,000!!! There were other rare Bibles there as well. I had a man that worked there come and tell several of us about them and it was so interesting!!
After that we had supper there in a dinner theater....then another group sang and did comedy!!! They were better than the first group we saw the day before!! The man that I thought was so good was a part of this group as well. He works here then goes to the other place and sings again!! Again he was awesome and I wondered why someone with so much talent was working in such a small town like Eureka Springs!!! After supper we listened to a couple of others dressed in costume......one was David as a shepherd boy and he gave demonstrations on using a sling!!! Another gave a demonstration on pottery and compared it to how we are like clay.....molded by God. Very good!!!
Then we watched the Passion Play!!! It was just awesome!! It was the first time that Glen and I had seen it. It's an all outdoor play about Jesus' last days and is played out in a valley and hill across from the seating!!! Just awesome and highly recommended if you're ever there!!!
The next day we went and saw the Chist of the Ozarks statue by the Passion Play. We didn't have time to see it the day before. Then we drove out and went to Onyx cave. It wasn't very big but still interesting. We drove through Joplin and looked around at the devestation and rebuilding. They are rebuilding and still cleaning up. Whole neighborhoods are gone. So sad but you can see that in time......like years.......they'll be up and going again. It's just amazing how some houses were gone but every once in a while there'd be one that just had minor damage.
