Great rendition of the trip from Heck 🙂 I've had many such "vacations", both as the mom and as the child. Our family tradition is during every "vacation", we meet the local ER staff. Rural Wisconsin, rural PA, rural Tennessee, rural GA...Even rural Germany.
(Can it really be called a vacation if the emergency room is involved?)
We found you via NTB, and were delighted to learn you're a mere half hour up US 31 from us. Thank you for your insightful, funny, touching, and thought-provoking content. Not The Bee struck gold when they found you. Prayers for your friend's health.
Oh my goodness, I had trouble reading this. My eyes were filled with tears. Of laughter. I have to send this to people who don’t even know you. I am sorry about your trip and I am so sorry about your friend and pray that God will bring healing. Peter, please indicate the articles that you write for NtB at the end of the page like you initially did. I look at NtB daily but I don’t see your stories and I would read them if I knew you were the author.. Happy New Year to you, Jenny and your children.
Aside from the troubles, it is a beautiful area! I’ve worked a men’s hiking 4M ministry right in those woods! Beautiful trails in the Daniel Boone National Forest.
I LOVE your candid honesty! I have experienced one or two of these " vacations" as well, and they have continued to provide laughs over the years. (You WILL laugh some day!) However, the truth of the matter lies in your observation that "frustrations are real and stress is legitimate; but life is a gift, and perspective makes all the difference in the world." May God grant me to remember this every day!

Sounds like you had a trip that the kids will always remember!
