I'm Back!!!

I can't believe it's been 10 days since I posted anything new. We have been so busy since we left home--3 cross-country runs in a row and then a necessary 2 days down time near San Jose, Ca. We were able to stay at the same truckstop as before and visit PeaSoup Andersen's restaurant. We were also able to revisit the Los Banos UM Church. We've been there so many times that people are starting to recognize us. Ron thinks they're getting ready to ask us to membership classes. :)
We are now in Las Vegas for the second time in 3 days. We pick up our load around noon tomorrow and head out for delivery in Florida on Monday morning. We hope to be able to visit with Ron's sister and brother-in-law while we're there.
We have satellite radio in the truck and our car (which is a blessing on the road) and Ron has gotten me hooked on Southern Gospel Music. We listen exclusively to the station "Enlighten" and hear a wonderful variety of music. They play oldies, contemporary, new, soloes, quartets, groups, you name it. They also air programs like Gospel Greats, Bill Gaither's Homecoming, and guest shows like Daniel Britt & Friends. Over all I love the music but once in a while I hear one that will set my teeth on edge. At these times, usually an oldie with a very prominent twang, all my vocal instruction slams to the front of my brain. Case in point: holding a very long note or chord on the letter R. This is also usually done at a decibel level or two above normal range.
But most often the music is music to live by and relates to everyone listening= the Love and Grace of God and Jesus Christ.
I recommend this station to all lovers of music. It can be found on Sirius/XM radio on channel 18. Try it, you'll like it. Give it a chance to grow on you. I did and love it. Until next time . . . . .
