Sabbatical Journey #9

 Yesterday we moved from the Ela campground near Bryson City, NC over the top of the mountains to the Gatlinburg, TN side of the Smokies. We are now in the Elkmont camp in GSMNP. That means there are no hookups and it also means that we are about as beautiful a camping spot as you’ve ever seen. We have a flowing stream just a few feet behind us and wonderful green mountains all around us. When we got here it was cold and spitting rain. The night was a cold one, down to around 40. Our camper has no on board heat, but we were able to keep things comfortable using the stove. That isn’t the best way to heat, but we kept a couple of windows open a few inches for oxygen, and when we went to bed we shut it down and crawled into our double sleeping bag. We slept great, although when we got up we could see our breath! Once the stove was lit and some coffee was made it was just fine again.

  • Devotional on the Psalms
    Highs and lows and in-betweens Psalm 30: I can’t keep quiet about you. It’ll come as a surprise to no one, but I confess that I’m no David. He lives larger than life. I have the idea he’s more passionate over his breakfast each morning than I am over the biggest events in my life. [...]
