Sights in FS today

So we headed out thIs to try the invite work for dc. Joined the Lees & went out to Labadie area. I knew a little of area, driving territory, do here was some of the sights.

so there was a mix of types of homes, this 1, Maggie & I walked down a 35-40 degree driveway, of course no one was home, but was a gorgeous looking pool.
Before this we ran into indian country we were sure.

Saw this big old brute and wondered if I had dozed off and was dreaming of a previous life as an Indian! My grandmother told us we had indians in our background, great grandma Pace was full blood, sioux or cherokee.









Then saw the rest of his clan.

There was 2 young ones born this year. talked to an 83 yr old farmer that owns 1 of the 3 farms that we saw Buffalo on. He just butchers a few each yr for his use. There is a wild game meat store not too far away I thought he maybe sold to. But according to him,"if I did that I'd have to let the gov't get involved" and he didn't like that idea.









WE worked with Maggie(12 yrs old) and her Mom, Heidi Lee, and enjoyed the morning and getting to know some of our new friends at KH. Wherever we go, you or us, isn't it marvelous to have a brotherhood, that the 1st time you meet them, or go in FS with, you have met a new member of your spiritual family? What a privilege to be a part of, an earthwide brotherhood, that is happy to meet you as you are to meet them. Even tho you just met them 5 minutes ago. Now you are going to doors together.

We had 3 of our grandkids coming over to spend the afternoon, so we ended up at noon. But here was the best pic of the day. The Bull of the family, No not me!
  

Upon closer scrutiny, he is missing a horn, and has some age on him, but he has protected his family, and sired a new generation of his family. Kind of like some of us. We were Bulls in our day ( some would say full of Bull........) we shouldered a heavy load, raised families, protected them as best we could, maybe lost some to poachers, disease, rustlers, or the ruthless enemy satan. But we are still here, doing whatever we can to protect our spiritual family, and trying to see to there welfare, by teaching them, and going in FS with them, and learning from them too. What a great privilege we have had, and continue to have serving with such a flock under Christ's leadership.
Love to all.
Tom & Elaine
