Sunny AZ

So i am in Mesa, AZ to celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday by helping my mother get back on her feet. I will return to scorching hot California on Monday night. So when I decided to drive here by myself I had no idea there were two Highway 60's and google maps failed me and i added about 2 hours to my drive through some crazy podunk towns and winding two lanes. I was nervous but I just kept my spirits up by listening to a children's book on CD read by Brenden Fraser and let me tell you, he can do all the voices. I mean ALL the voices you can think of. I was thoroughly entertained until i came to a big city and pulled up to a Barnes and Noble and stopped my first and last elderly couple to set me back on my route to Mesa. I was about an hour away and 5 freeways away. I am so surprised at how the Lord blesses. Mind you I was lost for awhile and would never have found my way back without having the courage to stop and ask these sweet folks how to get back. It sort of reminds me of the gospel and when we lose our way. We just need to ASK. So they gave me great directions and I made it in the dark to a city I have never driven to before all alone and in good spirits. My poor mother on the other hand was in dire straits hoping i wasn't dead in a ditch and jeremy had already called looking for me. So I am here enjoying my vacation and the sun. See you all back in California.
