Packing Up & Heading South

We are official residents in Florida. We made it here a couple of weeks ago, & are still in the process of unloading! (Although, we are very close to being complete). We were packing up on a Friday a couple weeks ago. We had our things in a storage unit, so some brothers came to unload the unit & put it in the "big truck"! We managed to snap a couple of pictures, but for some reason they are not posting. Keep on looking to see if we get more pictures on here!!

We had a journey on the way down. When ran into some trouble with one of the trucks. We got to get a long break to stretch our legs though! The other group in the "big truck" went ahead heading to Florida, while the rest of us went to a work shop to see what was wrong with the other truck. We got delayed a couple hours. While we were waiting we got to make a witness. We were in the waiting room, we started a conversation with a lady in there & told her we were moving to Florida. She asked why we were going to Florida. Mom explained to her that we were Jehovah's Witnesses & that we were full time pioneers. She looked at us and said- "My mom told me she was a pioneer!". She went on to explain that her family had grown up around the truth, but never were really involved. It was so awesome to see that she recognized who we really were.
We finally got the truck fixed & were on our way. We got in at 4:00 AM on Sunday Morning. A brother dropped off some breakfast for us and was planning to come back & help us unload! After the meeting we were greeted with friends that were ready to help us unload!
We got to relax that evening & enjoyed some real seafood!
The Honeys!
