We have enjoyed visiting with friends and family these last few days. We spent several days in San Antonio, spending lots of time with former friends from CCUM, Joseph & Marilyn Waters. They seem to love being in San Antonio. Of course, it helps that their daughter and family live just around the corner from them. They are enjoying the United Methodist Church that we attended with them, even getting to hear their granddaughter play the cello during the service.
We didn't realize, until too late, that the Final Four was happening the same weekend that we were in San Antonio. We decided to take a City Tour rather than drive downtown to tour the Alamo and missions, etc. But we sure saw lots of fans of Jayhawks and Tigers (Kansas and Memphis) downtown, and were glad we hadn't actually driven the tour route ourselves!
We also had a wonderful visit with Linda and Kent Barnard (Gayle's sister-in-law) who moved from Bakersfield to Waco to be part of an Antioch Ministries Mission. (Their daughter and family are serving as missionaries in a remote part of Asia.) We had a chance to see their other daughter who lives with them, and will be graduating from Baylor University in May. Linda and Kent will be going to India in June for a couple weeks to participate in the mission they have been training for. It was wonderful to re-connect with them. They sent us off with prayer before we left. We felt blessed.
