First step complete

Today was the day for departure to Alabama. Our goal was to drive from home to Massachusetts and we were successful. It seems like we hit a toll every ten minutes once we got south of Bangor.
Our trip was made more exciting for me, as we had the thrill of listening to the New England Patriots game on the radio. It was funny because after the game they have a call in show. One guy called in and said that the referee made a terrible call on a play. The radio host asked him if he watched the game and the caller said no that he had only listened to it on the radio. How could he possibly know if the ref "blew" the call?
I thought it was interesting that someone was critical of what they had heard without really seeing the issue he was complaining about. Do we ever do that? Make an opinion about something without knowing the actual facts.
I want to be someone who understands the facts before forming an opinion. Otherwise I can make myself look a little foolish, just like the radio caller. have you ever done that?
Tomorrow we are heading further south. We hope to get to southern Virginia tomorrow. Please continue to pray for us as we travel. Please pray for Ruth and the kids as well.
