This song says it all.

Dave and his grandfather, circa 1971
 
Here’s a recap of my recent road trip to the Pacific Northwest as recounted by FaceBook.  I’ve cleaned it up a bit for readability and privacy. But here you go.
 
PS – HOMM is the abbreviation for House of Myrrh Ministries.
 
I headed up north for training in the HeartRecovery process which is under the umbrella of HOMM.  Besides the obvious knowledge that was imparted, it was personally enriching.  I know that I was there because I needed to be.  I am still not sure what affect this has on where I am headed in the future.  But then I really don’t need to know.  That’s the beauty of trust.
 
THURSDAY
Dave‘s almost on the road.



 
Dave is off: intermediate destination – Redding to bed down for the night.




 
Dave thinks it’s more comfy sitting on a sofa than a car for 3 hours.

 
Dave goes to bed before my last 400 miles tomorrow.

 
FRIDAY
Dave resumes the great big adventure

 
Dave always forgets about the glorious beauty on I-5 between Redding and OR border!



 
Dave just passed through the state of Jefferson, almost there? Or where am I?

 
Dave does not text while driving! How can I, I’m too busy updating FaceBook. 300mi to go.

 
Dave considers what the pioneers thought as they arrived at this point on the Applegate Trail. 200mi to go!

 
Dave says that driving between the lines reminds me of coloring between the lines – sometimes you wish the lines would go away so you could see how creative you are. 100mi to go!


Dave GZ! HOMM at last.

 
Dave is very ready to settle in for the evening.

 
SATURDAY
Dave is eatin’ lunch as I absorb this mornings workshop session



 
Dave finds it interesting how 50% were eating in this eve but no one is here but me. If I were prone to wondering what I did wrong, I might be wondering…

 
Dave has arrived at his nighttime abode. Now time to knock that homework out before these sleepy eyes can see no more.

 
SUNDAY
Dave hides in the Truth!

 
Dave finds incredible joy in transparent worship celebrations


 

Dave S. – Dave, I just found out you were up at House of Mryrr. When are you headed back? Are you planning on sharing with us tomorrow night?


 
Dave is not disappointed, 26 hours well spent. Time to process while beginning trek home. Eugene tonight? Probably…

 
Dave rests in Eugene before trekking on tomorrow
 

MONDAY
Dave sings “on the road again”… Only 482mi to go as the GPS nags.


 
Dave 400mi 4 I get to squeeze my honey!

 
Dave is in Ashland,OR with 300mi to 0.



 
Dave arrives in CA! Fog and sanded roads on pass. Looks like I missed less fair weather between Friday and today.

 
Dave finds this extended quiet time after an experience like this past weekend is medicine for my very soul. Stopped for prayer since my last post. Shasta Lake and only 200mi to go!


 
Dave has 100mtg, good thing as I’ve eaten 5,900 calories of butter toffee peanuts (4 lbs) – don’t know if I can survive till I get home



Dave is home away from HOMM. I’d do it again next weekend.  It was worth it!
