Kit and I recently finished fifteen intense months living up to being “Full Time Volunteers” for FamilyLife. We also wrote and published a new novel. I’m amazed and deeply grateful to be fully engaged at age seventy-three. Still, Kit and I don’t have hive-of-bees energy like we used to.
Therefore, we rewarded ourselves with a care-free road trip to Oregon, Utah, and Nevada. I’m the speck at the center of the bridge in front of Multnomah Falls. We also visited Oregon Trail sites, Park City, Crater Lake, Mount Shasta, Great Salt Lake, Bonneville Salt Flats, and drove through a dozen snow-capped mountain ranges.
Sometimes the right thing to do is set aside our important goals and have some fun.

More Than Ordinary Lives 
You two are an inspiration to me and so many others. I love how you both live to the fullest and for the Lord. I hope John and I can come visit sometime. You are always special to me Kit.

Hi, Kit and Drew! Not sure how I found your blog but I ran across it a couple years ago. I enjoy all your little stories and am an avid reader. This one caught my eye especially because we too have stood in that same spot of Multnomah Falls. Wasn’t it just the most magical place? Upon retiring in 2014 we took a trip around Oregon with friends. We are from Chicago area and this had been a dream for us. Hope to try your novels soon.
