It's raining acorns!
Oh, the pleasures of being parked beneath two huge oak trees! The past two weeks it has been literally raining acorns on our home. If we lived in a normal house, we would probably hardly notice this natural occurrence, but since we live in our 5th-wheel trailer, we hear every single acorn that falls. It's like when it rains, we hear every single rain drop that falls. The latter is nice and can even be comforting or lull us to sleep, the former does much the opposite. It sounds like we are being attacked or that someone is constantly throwing rocks at our home. I must say that today it is better though. Where as we used to hear a few acorns every 5-10 seconds, today it has been a few every 2-3 minutes. Either the squirrels are done jumping around the trees with their harried gathering, or maybe the acorns are just done falling. Well, we won't be here much longer to "enjoy" this mild annoyance. We will be leaving Sauk City on October 13th and heading for our property in Marshalltown, IA. We look forward to living on our land and working on the maintenance issues there. We will also be traveling every weekend to update some of our supporting churches. We are updating churches in Nebraska, Minnesota and Iowa. Appreciate your prayers as we pack things up and leave friends here and as we do lots of traveling next month!
