7/18/15 - Day 8

Arkansas Cousins. Four Generations.

7/16/15 and 7/17/15 - Day 6 & Day 7

Bentley likes to travel down the road as much as I do.

Before leaving Clear Lake, we drove around their historic downtown, "Main Street, USA."

I found it fascinating to run across two cars exactly like mine on our journey. One was in the driveway next to the Ames Unity Church in Iowa and the other one was on the road in Missouri.

Here are some road signs spotted while on the journey. We never did see Road "X" and my namesake road is def about my initials, DD, D2, double D (grin), and while we took "A" road through IA and MO, we saw lots of buggies.

Which makes for a different type of 4-lane highway.

I'm in Arkansas with family over the weekend. It's been 40+ years since I've been back here, and I have two generations of cousins I've never met. I am grateful for this opportunity.

While walking Bentley, I couldn't resist taking his pic in front of a Bentley wind sock. There is something amazing around every corner if we just look for it. Life is good, always.

7/14/15 and 7/15/15 - Day 4 & Day 5

Every morning, Bentley and I drove to and walked through Clear Lake State Park.

And to better share the experience with you, here's a video I took while sitting on the bench where I did my morning prayer and meditation each day.

Here is a pic of the wonderful Unity South Central Board I serve.

We worked hard and had long meetings during the day, and while the following pics were taken the evening after my birthday, I choose to think of it as a week long celebration. :))

Scott, our accountant, lowered his classic, beautiful boat, and then rounded it to the pier perfectly, and off we went!

Becky Whitehead, President and Joy Walker, Treasurer

David, our VP, is a wild man on the Sea-doo. What fun!

Originally from Georgia, he makes the best peach pies! Although they were made for everyone, to me, it was the best birthday cake ever.

This trip had so many gifts. I'll share more later, but for now - On the Road Again!
