Well Saturday started out to be almost as nice a day as Friday with near perfect Fall temps, but that started to change by late evening as the temps began to drop with the steady wind. The leaves also turned overnight and many were falling with the wind. We headed out to Cornerstone around 9'ish after a 6 ish rollout to my usual routines that start with some quiet moments to honor my LORD, give thanks for another day and to lift up several by name. Joe our mountain mom's brother who is 96 fell and broke his ankle and under went surgery and is in the hospital in Elkin.
Our neighbor in Florida and dear friends the Botbyl's left around 7:30 for home, so we are guests free for a couple of days until sister Dee and Mike come for the last weekend here until summer. It has been a busy summer with family and friends enjoying our place. I did manage three trips down and back up the driveway which is quite a workout, that I took in the place of a long hike up to the top of the mountain. We headed out around 9'ish to the conference we attended at Cornerstone which was awesome with several testimonies of elected and officials here in Alleghany County and several who are seeking state wide election, but running on Biblical principles which America desperately needs. There was decent attendance with several pastors in the area for the breakfast and then locals came to hear the speakers after some praise and worship music. The turn out was better than I had expected despite several who promised to attend which never showed up. They sure missed just what America needs to hear about leaders who take their love of GOD seriously and want to restore the nation back to what the founders envisioned for the nation in government.
We got a surprise visit from and old Mountain top friend whom we had grown to know and love. Her husband Joe has passed away about 3 years or so, but Jetta drove down from the Cleveland area alone and looked to be in good shape for her 80's after a knee replacement in April. We also visited with our mountain mom Helen on the way home from church and brought her some stuffed peppers and met Joe's daughter Patricia who had been at the hospital visiting her dad Joe, after his surgery. I winterized her garage for her since her son won't becoming until later in the Fall.
Well that was about it for this Saturday as I watched the developing war in Israel and the aftermath of what the barbarians did to innocent folks in Israel. They are sub humans and I hope the IDF destroy everyone of them along with all of the muslim radical terrorists, LATER
