Kentucky

We flew stand-by to Lexington, Kentucky on Monday the 5th. Flying stand-by is always an adventure. We didn't make it on the first two flights but finally made it on the third, after spending about six hours sitting at the airport. Since we arrived into Lexington pretty late, I am assuming most of the rental cars were already taken and that is why we ended up with the smallest car that I have ever seen -- a Chevy Aveo. Had we not been worn out from a day of travel and also freezing from the dramatic temperature change, it would have been pretty funny watching Daniel wrestle four large suitcases into that tiny car and then trying to get in himself.

We stayed the week with Matt and Emily Coy, our friends from college. We had a great time with them! We went to a UK basketball game on Tuesday night and they won! We drove our rental car to the game and Matt asked the parking attendant if we could pay half price since we only had half a car. Too bad the attendant didn't go for that.

During our week in Kentucky we visited our college campus (Asbury College), looked at Asbury Seminary as a possibility for Daniel sometime in the future, looked at a program at the University of Kentucky, and visited several friends. It was a fun week!

We had dinner one night with Beth Rogers (pictured above), one of the NLCH interns from last summer
