traveling

February is a month of traveling for me. I came home from the rhp meetings in Copenhagen, and two days later, I drove up to Hof Germany with Noah and the team leader from Innsbruck. This coming week, I will visit my mom in Virginia to help her move out of her house after 40 years.

In Hof, Germany, I was invited to preach at the commissioning service of a missionary who is joing IT.

Normally, the trip would take 4 hours. As it turned out, it took nearly nine. This week is the semester break for the schools in Germany. The highways were jammed with holiday skiers. In fact there were traffic jams for over 60 miles. We ended up taking all the side roads along the autobahn.

The only way around munich was to go directly through it, and even there, we ran into blockades and demonstrations, because there was a european security conference going on with Putin and Merkel.

Here's what the famous "staus" -traffic jams- in Germany look like! At the bottom are Noah and I in the commissioning service.
