I cannot believe this is day 15. The time has zipped by so quickly. This morning found us pulling out of Mineral Wells at 7:00 this morning so that we could get to First Church of the Nazarene in Brownwood for a Garden Gathering at 10:00. We pulled up to the church to be greeted by Margo who had to leave us last Sunday because she had to get back home. The Magnolias were excited to have her back with us. We are also excited that Janet and Michael Hodges drove from Lockhart to join us and Mickey Thomas's cousin was there. We had a wonderful gathering with our Magnolia's music and the testimonies. The folks there were a group of very special people - especially to Becky because her grandpa was there!

After a wonderful lunch we headed to Abilene. Ron didn't know what to do with just a one and a half hour drive. We arrived in Abilene with a 3 hour break before we had to pull out for our next concert. We were thrilled to be joined by Evelyn and her son Don in Abilene. We were the guests of Pioneer Drive Baptist Church's Seniors. We met at a restaurant that was packed with their people. They tapped their toes as our Magnolias sang. They especially loved Evelyn's harmonica song of God Bless America. Afterwards we had a full Mexican food dinner.

This day is over and we will just have one more day on the road together. As we travel down the road each day we are continually reminiscing about the events of the day and of the trip ... such sweet memories.
Until later.....
God Bless!
