Every good story ends how it starts.

Since returning to Memphis we were able to meet up with our first contacts Andrew and Katherine for a few laughs. We got to enjoy some tempura ice cream again, tried some tempura cheesecake, experienced downtown Memphis, then went to Kooky Canucks for lunch and had an incredible dessert. This dessert is called the Avalanche, a whopping 18 scoops of vanilla ice cream with a plethora of toppings. For sure this was the biggest ice cream challenge I have encountered and was thoroughly impressed by how much Julie was able to inhale.

It is officially one week from today we will be on the road back to Ca. As I lay here in Memphis, in the lovely home of the Lawrances, I am able to reflect on the last two months. The southeast nomads got to spread to news about North Korea eight states throughout the south. We met some incredible people along the way, had countless amounts of laughs, and personally learned so much about myself. Throughout the past two months of tour I have been challenged in multiple ways and within all this, I have learned to rely on the Lord more than ever. I really been able to come to grasp to what it means to Trust in the Lord and He will make your paths straight. There is something about not being in your “daily” environment that makes you stretch and really learn who you are. I have grown and been stretched in ways I was not aware of. Being away from my family, sisters, and brothers back home has made me so thankful for the people in my life. If there is one thing in life that truly gives me joy it is the relationships that I have with the people present in my life.
