When I was flying ultralights to do the America From 500 Feet books, I often would take off pre-sunrise in hopes of catching morning fog. \u00a0On this morning at the Boundary Canoe Waters, I was rewarded with a good thick fog, off the water, and a wonderful amber sunrise! \u00a0One morning in Wisconsin the fog moved over to the air field I had taken off from, and I could’t find it when I flew back by GPS to land!!!! \u00a0I was lucky that the fog was not everywhere and I found a good straight stretch of local highway where I could safely land! \u00a0It’s pretty scary when you are up in the air and not sure where you are going to land safely! \u00a0It’s comforting to know God has your back!<\/p>\n

This past weekend I had the pleasure of attending and speaking at the Photo Pro Expo in Covin- gton, Kentucky, just across the river from Cincinnati. \u00a0My\u00a0<\/span><\/span>group\u00a0that drug out of bed for an early\u00a0<\/span>morning\u00a0 {7:30 a.m.}\u00a0<\/span>program was great. \u00a0I really enjoyed sharing with them. \u00a0A few friends and associates knew I was having\u00a0oral surgery tomorrow and everyone, knew it was my birthday, I’ve never had 180 people sing happy birthday to me before, but it was really cool!!!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I‘ve gotten a ton of emails, and face book posts reminding me that friends would be in prayer for me tomorrow. \u00a0I want to\u00a0<\/span><\/span>thank\u00a0all those very kind people that have let me know they would be\u00a0<\/span>lifting\u00a0me up. \u00a0I know that where two are more are gathered together<\/span>\u00a0before God, the\u00a0<\/span>results can be fantastic! \u00a0I’m still a little\u00a0apprehensive about the\u00a0procedure, but I feel confident God will be right there,\u00a0thanks to\u00a0your prayers!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I will likely be off the grid for a couple of days, but I hope to be telling all of you that it went well in a few days. \u00a0Thanks for standing with me, and giving me a safe place to land! \u00a0I’ll have your back next time!!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Blessings,<\/p>\n
