We got the rental house cleaned out and hit the road last Tuesday. We had several stops along the way to visit family and arrived in Bayfield Saturday.

Noodin’s on the Road

Entering the packed tent and finding "Honky Tonk Hymnals" on two of the last chairs raised the anticipation level a bit more. The praise band was excellent … Continue reading Went to Church with Elvis
