Dust, Dirt, and Desert

I was so excited to go to California and now that I am here I think I over estimated it...lol...However, I've really only been in the Mohave Desert. It is so hot and dusty and dry! I've had two bloody noses, and I never ever get those :( We are headed to San Francisco tomorrow I think and I am still excited for that. I do really want to drive over the Golden Gate bridge. I'm starting to get a sore throat because the climate here is so different than the East Coast. And the driving, everyone seems to drive very aggressively. We have a few more days off then we are headed to Santa Rosa(maybe even tomorrow night lol) and we will be doing worship there. Tonight we are staying in a hotel, camping was okay, but I don't prefer it. The bathrooms were pretty scary LOL and there were so many burrs(sharp pointy objects that God made, and I'm not sure why. I have really enjoyed Tennessee and Texas the most on this trip, not such a huge fan of Arizona...well I'm getting tired...I'll leave you with this verse..."Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say rejoice!" Philippians 4:4...I need to keep reminding myself to always be thankful to God. He has provided ALL my needs. I continue to pray along this trek that I am filled with his love and joy!!
