On Monday, my pastor and I met Jaron and Diego from New Jersey. This summer, they are cycling through the country to raise awareness and funds for a charity which sponsors those with brain injuries and it’s research. We were able to pray with them and give them some pointers for navigating the area.
There was quite a stir over storms moving through our area Tuesday night. Several severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings were issued, but at the time, the skies looked relatively calm. Then, within minutes, my wife and I saw this front moving in:
At a local convenient store, my total came up to $6.66. The cashier promptly charged me another penny. I quipped that if paying an extra penny made her feel better, I would gladly pay it. She didn’t get the joke as she was very serious about the superstition. She gave me $3.35 in change, so I actually paid $6.65.
On Saturday afternoon, my wife and I had a fantastic Father’s Day meal at her parent’s home. That evening, we prepared dinner for my father and mother. Spending time with family is a treat. I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
Well, I was going to say why didn’t she take a penny off instead of charging one because of her superstition. No sense in making you pay an extra penny!
I really like your storm photos. I wish I had seen that. There are so many trees and hills down here, I don’t get to see the cool clouds. Guess I’m gonna have to resort to tornado chasing. hehe
