I’m not sure what’s going on. Maybe God is just saying, “I see you.”
I altered my plans for tomorrow morning by leaving for Vermont this afternoon. Tomorrow will be much better survived because of it.
I booked an Airbnb in Tunbridge, so I only drive 40 minutes to the start line in the morning. Bearable. What I didn’t know when I booked it and started on my drive was the following:
- I’d pass signs for the birthplaces of two notable religious figures.
- When I stopped for gas and food it was 5PM. The Congregational Church bells across the street started playing the hymn Softly and Tenderly. The lines of the chorus start, “Come Home, Come Home.” Again, it was 5PM.
- My Airbnb host is a college track coach. He lives in the mountains. I can hear water running down the mountainside from my room window.
God is probably saying something more like, “Good thing I gave you common sense, and you decided to use it.”




John, you are in one of my favorite places / my paternal grandfather was from Vermont – I have been there 3 times and love it – would love to go again, but probably not a good idea at 88. Enjoy your visit there.

It is definitely beautiful. I’m here for just a few more hours then heading to New Hampshire.
