A Different Kind of Road Trip

Over the past couple of years, Spring and I have taken a couple of road trips to go to races in our area. We have always had a great time, filling the hours and watching the miles fly by as we chat and listen to great music.

Today we will leave on a different kind of road trip. We will be heading up to Madison where Randy is still in intensive care, but doing a little better every day. The leaking spinal fluid that was such a concern has stopped, which was a huge answer to prayer. He is supposed to be in a back brace and sitting up soon, and the chest tube is supposed to be removed in short order. All of this progress is amazing, and each step is a miracle. We are so hopeful that he will make a complete recovery.


Spring and I will make the best of this trip, and I have no doubt that we will find some lighthearted moments along the way. I wish with all my heart that this trip was for another reason, but it is what it is, and that won't change. All we can do is keep moving forward.
