It is the Lord's Day morning here in St Louis, and we are being hosted by Bob and Jeannie Edwards, the parents of our terrific co-workers in Taiwan, Chad and Alicia Edwards. It was Chad who designed our t-shirts, bike jerseys, bikes and produced the videos (promo and Noah's). I'm sitting on the back porch, listening to birds sing as I type this -- "ti how la!" (that's Chinese for "too good!") Luey is eating cake for breakfast!
Yesterday was a great day, made much easier by the Edwards! They e-mailed us early in the week and asked if they could drive out of St Louis and meet us, as it was proving difficult to find a route to N. St Louis -- over the rivers and thru the woods. No sooner did we meet up with the Edwards, and the Lord opened the heavens and it began to dump rain. How many times has that happened on this trip!
We went straight-away to a local bike shop and replaced a couple tires! 2000 miles must be the limit for road tires carry saddle bags! We also found tire liners -- a sheet of plastic that goes between the tire and the tubes that is suppose to be puncture proof -- "ti how la!"
Last night we had a wonderful dinner -- St Louis style barbecue pork chops, and then were forced to watch the Cardinals play! In between these, we made a call to wish Cordelia Kurtz, from Fisher, IL; a happy 100th birthday! What a sweet sister in the Lord! I was her pastor years ago before we made the move to Taiwan! Cordelia is a woman of strong faith and a true prayer warrior! We also did a two-day interview with a radio station in Central Illinois. It will aire on Monday and Tuesday, morning and evening, on WGNJ, Great News Radio! You can also listen on-line:

Thank you for praying!
Dave, Luey and Andy
