Whew! What a tiring and exhausting day! It began with a concert in Hershey, PA, where we performed at the Country Meadow Nursing Home. It was a nice facility, and the residents (plus one rabbit) seemed to enjoy the program. We were then off to Niagara, which we knew would be a stretch in making it by our 5p.m. target time. We arrived after 6, which meant that we were not able to ride the famous Maid of the Mist (the last boat left at 5:30p.m.) Still we arrived with plenty of daylight left to enjoy the sights of the American Falls, and for those with proper credentials, the Canadian side, which offered the better views. We even got to see the lights come on that illimunated the falls with colors, which was very neat. Time flew quickly for us the rest of the evening, and before we knew it, most of our restaurant choices for supper were closed. So, our large group of Baptists dined at the only open choice for late night fare: the Hard Rock Cafe.
Despite some unintended traffic and routing information, a previously described mechanical issue with the bus, and a few folks a bit under the weather, I'll have to say that the Lord has blessed us on this journey. We hope in turn we have blessed both those we have ministered to in the performances as well as each other in gaining new friends from partner chruches.
We begin the very long journey back to North Carolina tomorrow. Other than meal stops, it will be a straight shot.
