Crazy Easter Week

April 25, 2026

After closing down the Augusta Disaster Rebuild for now, we made a quick, 23 hour, turnaround. That means we took Fred to Randy and Debra’s home, about an hour from where we were working, visited, shared a few meals, and transferred everything we need back into BB (Beyond Blessed) and were back on the road to Alabama in 23 hours. That’s the best turnaround we have ever accomplished and yes, we did get some sleep. It was Easter weekend and we wanted to be at our home church, Lester Memorial. We made it back to our property on Pine Mountain, AL by 5:30 Saturday afternoon and took our afternoon walk with our dear friends Donna and Barry. We actually made it to 6:00 am Sunrise Services the next morning. We saw many precious friends and family members the next few days.

Our sunrise service this year was held inside at Palisades Park because of rain.

Even on a rainy day the view from the park shows the glory of God’s creation.

The children’s ministry at the church used metamorphosing butterflies to illustrate Christ’s resurrection and our transformation.

After the early service the butterflies were released.

On Wednesday we drove back to Senoia, GA to visit Anne’s brother and help him with some medical stuff. On Saturday we returned to Alabama, went to church Sunday, said our “see you down the roads”, took care of some business in Oneonta Monday and made it to Guntersville, AL on Tuesday. It was so great to see friends and family. It was definitely worth the craziness.
