Denver, CO

Denver was a great city. They had a modern area downtown with blocks of streets lined with shops and restaurants. It was fun to walk around. The mountains in the background made it very beautiful. While we were there, we visited with some friends that live in the area. Tyler Newberry (tylernewberry.com) and his lovely wife Leslianne came to the show. We stayed with Doug Herman (purerevolution.com) and his family Saturday night. They have a great house and were very hospitable. Denver has been my favorite city on this tour so far. I'm rating each city and this one received 5 stars in my book!

As we drove home yesterday, the price of deisel increased by the hour. It's now up to $3.59 in Tennessee. We budgeted for the fuel prices to increase to as much as $2.00 for this tour when we booked it 2 years ago. We never imagined it to be over $2 much less over $3.50! Please pray that the prices will go down or the Lord will provide the extra money to cover the raising prices of fuel. In our big truck, we only get 7 miles to the gallon.

$3.50 per gallon? That's shocking enough when you get 35 miles to the gallon, but when you only get 7/gallon, I can't imagine how expensive that becomes...I'll definitely be praying for provision!
