No, not really fishin'.
For the next 10 days, however, I will be away on vacation.
Lord knows, after this “Summer of Shame”, I (and you, the avid readers of this blog) need a break.
It’s been well over 25 years since I last traveled to London, mainly because the cardiologist who has supervised my care advised against it.
But it appears that retirement is agreeing with me to the extent that “Doc” has given me a thumbs up to take a trip "across the Pond".
I have so many fond memories of London, having lived in that remarkable City for 6 weeks during a Summer vacation from theology classes in Rome.
Back then, Rome, London, Paris, Madrid, the Cities of Europe were places you could walk.
Every time you turned a corner you encountered history.
I look forward to that experience again this trip.
Even went so far as to book a day’s excursion to Paris on the bullet train that travels under the English Channel. That should be a hoot!
I hear the train travels around 180 miles per hour. We are scheduled to leave London at around 9:30 AM and be in Paris in time for lunch atop the Eiffel Tower -- with champagne of course!
God has truly spoiled me all my life giving me the opportunity and privilege of seeing the wonders of His Creation in the places and cultures of so many different lands and people.
Please pray for a safe trip for me and the tour group I will be joining. I shall continue to keep you in my prayers daily as I always do.
Will be back around the 27th of October and hope to return to posting articles immediately thereafter.
In the meantime, take care and God bless you, each and every one!
