My parents now have two guests at their rinky-dink apartment in Springfield, Missouri.??ᬨ‚Ć Mark Hobson, a youth minister and super cool guy whom my mom and I had the privilege of meeting at the COGOP’s International Youth Camp in 2002, flew in from Houston last night.??ᬨ‚Ć I joined him by arriving a bit later than him, after driving a colossanormous distance from Newport News, VA.??ᬨ‚Ć 1,135 miles, to be exact.
Glad I’m here, though.??ᬨ‚Ć Today I went to the Crimson House church to help with their Angel Food Ministry, which is a program in which church members and non-members can order boxes of food.??ᬨ‚Ć It was neat seeing folks like Jody, Angie, Ted, Diane and Shauna (even though I only caught Diane and Shauna for a couple minutes at the end).??ᬨ‚Ć I also got a chance to meet some new folks at the church as well.
Around 7 tonight we all waited for an hour and a half to get into Lambert’s Cafe in Ozark.??ᬨ‚Ć Not worth the wait, in my opinion, but still great food and it was good times just sitting there chatting with my parents, brother and Mark for a bit.??ᬨ‚Ć I don’t get an opportunity to do that much and I appreciated every minute of it.
So now I’m about to go to bed, wake up tomorrow and watch the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant’s cooling tower, which stands in the town in which I used to live, go down in a hail of smoke and explosions.??ᬨ‚Ć I’m not kidding.??ᬨ‚Ć They’re gonna implode the local landmark, a 499-foot cooling tower.??ᬨ‚Ć Amazing.
Peace and I’ll write more tomorrow.??ᬨ‚Ć I’ll also update photos as I take them.
Would that be THE Mark Hobson??? The one, true Mark?
Yes, Paully that would be Markus! Jason graduated from high school tonight, awesome Jason, we are proud of you!
