The Next Stage Starts...


Well, here we are in Kentucky, with 9 to 11 months of Friend Raising a head of us.  With all that travel and prepping for ministry, there is not much time for other stuff.  Yet we still have a storage unit full of items that moved back from the Rez with us.  Now, before we get super busy is the time to get it and our room sorted through...  What will we do with the stuff we don't keep?

The Flea Market of course!  Just like there are open air/flea markets out on the Rez, we have them here in Kentucky too. So any furniture, clothing, decor, and the likes that we don't need will go to a booth and sell off. If Michelle can gather supplies, we will most like sell soaps too.  Where will this money go?  Gas Money for traveling, and if there is a wee bit to spare: Rob's favorite chair gets reupholstered.

Monsoons and Birthdays

Monsoon rains have come.  And this makes an already exciting existence more adventuresome.  It also make daily work more difficult. I cant take my bike, Gypsy, out because our old paved roads get too slick with the rains.  Gas is too expensive to drive my husband's truck, Rez Rocket, just around town.  She is a good truck, but as a 1986 Chevy Scottsdale, she is also a gas drinker at slow speeds.  So its foot for us for a while.  That can be a challenge, as monsoon rains come up fast and some times with little warning.  But it can be fun to out run the rains...

Yesterday, I was at the open air market (sometimes called a flea market out here), and one of the vendors had an awesome ammo box, a good pocket knife, and a very used tool bag, perfect for my bike, Gypsy.  The ammo box and knife were for my husband's birthday, which is today.  I love the open market!
