Dead End Roads "True Story"

Okay, I had told you all before that we had made a wrong turn on our trip to South Carolina, and that I would tell you more about it later; the time has come...LOL!!

TST was booked at Florence Baptist Church in Pelion, SC for a Sunday night concert on Jan. 27th. We were heading in the right direction, that is until we spotted a road that was called, "Florence Church Road". Being as that was the church we were singing at, my suggestion was that we should turn...all the while "Bonnie" was saying to stay straight!! I mean we were like a mile from the church, this had to be the right way!!! Anyway, we made the turn! The road was an old dirt and sand driveway. As we drove down it we could see the church down at the end. Good job, or so we thought! When we had made it to the end, there was a mound of dirt about 8' high separating us from the church!! It was the old church driveway!! So, there was no way to get to the church without crossing the HUGE pile of dirt in front of us!!! The worst part is that there was only one way for us to go and there were "NO TRESPASSING" signs all across the fence of the property with the only spot large enough for us to turn around! (The yard was full of big...huge barking dogs as well!!) We were thinking that this could be the end of TST...LOL!!!! Boy, what a time!!! We did manage to get turned in the right direction and went flying down the drive, heading back to the main road! Did you know that heavy vehicles slide instead of stopping in sand? Well, a word to the wise...when you're driving a little fast on a dirt and sand driveway and you hit your brakes, chances are you're going to slide instead of stop! Finally, the sand cooperated and we had stopped just at the end of the drive!!!!

Nobody ever said that you had to be smart to sing Gospel music...LOL! Therefore, we leave our navigating to God and "Bonnie"!!! People ask what they can pray for, on TST's behalf? "...Lord, help this group of basket-cases to arrive safely!" (Thank goodness that Moses was a basket-case, too!!! LOL!)
