Yawn!

Today has not been a typical day.  It has been a day of travel, to the GOP National Convention in Cleveland, OH.  My former college roommate, an alternate from Tennessee, got me a guest pass to the convention.  How could I say "no"?  So, here we are.

My flight was cancelled from ATL today, but the airlines cooperated with each other to get me on a similar flight with a different airline.  I actually ended up getting here earlier than originally planned. On the flight, I sat by this young lady who is studying nursing at Indiana Weslyan College.  She and 30 or so other young folks, were returning from a mission trip to Haiti, where they had done some construction and taught some English.  They were gone 10 days.  I was reminded of my own experiences in Haiti in the late 1970s, on college mission trips.

Today, I got to experience Uber for the first time!  What an awesome experience!  I had a coupon code, which made it cheaper.  The driver was pretty new to Uber as well, but he did a great job.

Well, please forgive this short and rather vacuous post.  I had about 4 hours of sleep last night/this morning.  I'll try to do better in the morning.

I'm grateful, Father, for the opportunity to participate in our nation's election process, although it is looking more and more fatally flawed.   I know that You have a plan for America and just pray it is a plan to restore our people to faith in You.  In Jesus' name, amen
