Pig Pickin' Goodness

Today we arrived in Knightdale, NC at Gordon's house where Mr and Mrs Brown and Mr Jack Monroe had been preparing all day for a good ol' North Carolina pig pickin. Mr Brown rolled out the big cooker at 6 am to start the pig. We had 3 shoulders and a chicken. Needless to say, it was delicious! Those folks in NC know what they're doing! This was a well needed night of relaxation and enjoying the night after the end of the week we had.
Friday was a very long day. We woke up at 4:45 to catch the ferry from Ocracoke, OBX and then completed a 130 mile day arriving in Goldsboro, NC. We had some mishaps along the way. Marianne took a spill coming over some railroad tracks and ended up with a few scrapes and a sore shoulder but being the trooper that she is continued riding another 50 miles before stopping for the day. Once we all made it to Goldsboro late in the evening, members of Faith Alliance Church fed and housed us for the night. And that is a summary of our long day on Friday.
This morning we took our time getting out of Goldsboro and had a good Bible study with a few of the host adults. Today's ride was 60 miles and rather slow after the long day we put in yesterday but once we arrived in Knightdale the slow ride faded from thought as we rode up and smelled the pig on the grill. It was great!
Tomorrow we have a couple presentations at First Alliance Church and Celebration Family Church in the morning services and Sunday schools. And tomorrow night we will be at North Ridge Alliance church for our "Night of Worship" and presentation that has been set up for us. We're looking for the Lord to do great things tomorrow and are excited to report what He does.

Until then "see ya when the road ends." (Sarah Finch)

Good night world!
