Lucky the destructive dog

I have come to the conclusion that Lucky is the most destructive puppy we have ever owned!  He's almost nine months old and I think he's done teething, he just likes to tear things up.  I've bought him countless toys described as "tuff", "for aggressive chewers" and so on and he's destroyed every single one of them.  Day before yesterday he tore a tennis ball to pieces.   Last night we stayed with the Manzano's and when we left for church this morning I put Lucky in the bed Sissy got for him.  We left our bedroom door cracked to cool the room off while we were gone.  When we got back this afternoon we find out from the Manzano's that Lucky came to greet them when they got home...he had torn a hole in the door of his bed and got out.  Don't you know he was a happy dog when he escaped that bed?  He had the run of the house practically all day.

Time flies..


I can't believe it's been over a week since I last posted.  I'm gettin' a little more used to the hot weather here..and plus it's cooled off a few degrees.
We're still parked in San Bernardino at the Strattons church.  Friday night we had an outreach and got sixty-five bible studies!!  Also, we had several receive the Holy Ghost in Sundays service.
We are still going to the Manzano's church once a week too, to do a bible study class..not much else new for the moment.

Onward christian soldiers..

After five weeks of being parked in Pasadena we are movin' on to San Bernardino..bout forty-five miles east. Bro. & Sis. Stratton pastor in San Bernardino www.gatewaychristianfellowship.com
Is anybody enjoying this HOT weather? Yesterday, when we pulled into the church parking lot, the thermometer on my car read 109 degrees! I was afraid to let Lucky run around on the pavement because the pavement was so hot! I thought my jelly shoes were going to melt on my feet..lol - thank the Lord for two AC's! I blacked out most of the windows in my trailer to keep some of the heat out..call me a redneck if you want to :0) If you've ever lived in a fifth wheel you know their not well insulated..yes, I feel like I'm living in a cave - but it's a "cool" cave (meant literally).

Golden times..

This past week I found out there is more in LA than the big city. On our way back to Pasadena from Lancaster Wednesday, we drove through the Angeles National Forest. It was BEAUTIFUL! On the left is a picture I took of some flowers I thought were pretty. Part of the forest had pine and other trees (looked like wilderness I would see in Alabama) and some parts looked like desert, like where these flowers are. The forest was relaxing to drive through.
At the moment we are still parked in Pasadena. We had a great service with the Browns on Wednesday and Sunday. Three people received the Holy Ghost Sunday!
