Glad to be Home
We arrived at our home at 627 Hillsboro Road in Montgomery, Alabama on Wednesday, August 13 at about 2:15 in the afternoon. We have driven over 9,000 miles, used untold gallons of diesel fuel, driven in 22 states and seen some of the most beautiful pieces of God's creation you could every imagine. We felt His hand, we felt your prayers and we thank Him and praise Him for a wonderful trip, for traveling mercies and for friends and family like you who have traveled with us in our thoughts and prayers. We love you all. Frank & Mary Lew
Our Last Night on the Road
This is the name of the RV park we stayed in on our last night on the road (Tuesday). The perfect name we thought.
More Louisiana
We drove over this strange sight. It is called Henderson Swamp.
We also drove over the Atchafalaya River (don't ask me how to pronounce it).
This is the 20 mile bridge we drove on as we drove over the above attractions.

Lake Charles, Louisiana
Here are a couple pictures of Lake Charles. They had a really odd bridge to drive across, but I couldn't get a good picture of it. It went up hill and looked like when you got to the top that there was a big drop off. Really a wierd feeling.
Louisiana
Today (Monday) we drove through part of Louisiana. We will stay the night here tonight in Scott, Louisiana. Alabama is getting closer and closer. Thanks again for your prayers, God is with us and is taking good care of us.
Houston, Texas
Sunday we drove through Houston to get to our RV park in Baytown, Texas to stay the night. I saw this flag flying in the breeze and I thought it was beautiful so I took a picture.
Downtown Houston. Traffic was a mess, they were working on the roads, even on Sunday. But we made it through the traffic mess, thank the Lord.

Lackland AFB
We had to go one last place in San Antonio before we left.
Lackland Air Force Base where Frank went through Air Force Basic Training in 1960.
He couldn't believe there are still using World War II barracks on the base.

Sweet Home Alabama
We will be leaving San Antonio on Sunday, August 10 to travel back to Alabama. We will stop 3 nights on the road. We ask for your prayers as we travel the last few hundred miles. God has been so good to us, He has blessed us with His protection, given us untold traveling mercies, and allowed us to see some awesome sights that He has created. I know He has His hand on us and we look forward to Him taking us back to Alabama safely. Thanks for your prayers. Love to All.
The View from the Top
As you can see in the background the view was really something!
This is the view of the Alamodome where the evening services for General Assembly were held.
This is some of downtown San Antonio.
This is a view of the Alamo from the tower.

Tower of the Americas
After the Botanical Gardens we went to the Tower of the Americas for lunch. We rode the elevator 750 feet to the top where the restaurant is located. The elevator had a window in it so you could look out over San Antonio while you were riding up.
The plaza around the Tower has some beautiful waterfalls, this is just one of them.
