Yeah, by that time, they can put me in a nursing home, hang a picture of the Eiffel tower in my room, and tell me I'm in Paris. And, I'll believe them!

Re: Pray for the good citizens of Europe

Hey congrats Bro!

A good buddy of mine did just that for six months after graduating in 1982.
He had a blast backpacking around Europe & remembers sleeping on the beach in the Mediterranean many times.

He liked it so much that in the early nineties he went back to France (his mom is a French Citizen) & got married and has family.

He is a coach for a French hockey team.

Awesome!

If they like it that much, and return there to live, my wife will shoot me!

Re: Pray for the good citizens of Europe

have you heard from your boys yet, Mike? I'm praying for them. Asking God to watch over them, to keep them safe, to guard their hearts so that they come home with a burning desire to serve Him, and to teach them all kinds of stuff.

Maybe I should pray for Mom and Dad to be able to rest well at night, too, eh? You would need to pray that for me, believe me! In fact when Justin leaves for college August 23rd, I'm gonna need your prayers. I don't know---Portsmouth is 6.5 hours from here. That's an awful long ways Thank the Lord it's not as far as Europe WHEW! Now there is a blessing. LOL

London is on the east side of England and Dublin is on the east side of Ireland. They must have to go down and around the west of England and into the English channel to get over to the east side of England. It's a lonnggggg way round!

I may be wrong but I lived in England for four years.

Re: Pray for the good citizens of Europe

What a great opportunity - I am jealous of the boys. I have always wanted to do something like this.

So, you're not really sure if you lived in England for four years?
