Well my wife and I have arrived in Pigeon Forge. We are at the Holiday In Resort facility here in PF. Our couples retreat will begin tomorrow evening at 7:30 pm Dr. James Stone will be our guest speaker. The pool and whirlpool was great today (Pool hours here are great, open till midnight) after the 295 mile ride in our church van. I brought up tech equipment to be setup in am.

We are expecting about 45 couples. Please be in prayer for the retreat.

PS. not to late. come on down.

Been there once about 10 years ago, and loved Pigeon Forge. had my first Crispy Creme there. Went to Dollywood and had a blast. The only bummer is I didnt get to see Dolly in person. 8)

Well we are home.

The Retreat was great. Faility was great.

Dr J Stone did an outstanding job.

One thing he taught us was the Four Absolute Worst Words a man
wants to hear.

Naah I started to make you guess.

Wife says. We Need To TALK! Can I get a witness.
