LOUISIANA - Trip Home to Northwest Louisiana July 2015 - Happy Endings

July 24 Sunset Bossier City, Louisiana

HAPPY ENDINGS - Journey Home to Nashville(Franklin) Begins -- These past three days have been days of time with friends and family.  After staying two nights with my niece Sandra and her family in Princeton, LA, I moved to the hotel life and am spending my last night in Louisiana at the Hampton Inn on Airline Drive in Bossier City.  I continued to spend time with sisters and friends ending with dinner tonight together in local seafood restaurant KIM'S.  Tomorrow I begin my journey home driving to Jackson, MS, and with a couple nights stop along the way, I plan to arrive home in Franklin Tuesday afternoon, July 28.

One of the best times of this visit to Northwest Louisiana was reunion time with my long time friend Todd Young and his family in Shreveport Wednesday afternoon.  After eating together at Chic fil a, Todd took me to visit and tour Summer Grove Baptist Church where he is now the Minister of Adult Education.  Summer Grove's buildings are unique in that they bought the old South Park Mall in Shreveport and converted the buildings into church facilities.  I was very impressed.  Most of all I relished my time just being with Todd.  Todd grew up in Nashville and he and I have been mutual Christian mentors since he was in the seventh grade. Until last June, Todd was the Education Minister at Forest Hills Baptist Church in Nashville where I have attended since 2003.  Yes, I miss him and his family very much back in Nashville.

Life In Nashville - Can you believe?  I really don't have any big travel plans for the remaining months of 2015.  Looking forward to getting back to Nashville and working with the 4th - 6th graders in 8:30 AM Sunday School at Forest Hills Baptist Church and enjoying NFL football season supporting the Tennessee Titans.  

Will be planning for and looking forward to traveling to visit my friend Charlie Doggett in Costa Rica in February 2016 and potentially traveling to Eastern Canada to ride Via Rail visiting Toronto, Montreal, and Halifax, Nova Scotia in May 2016.
