Running for the Border

I always thought it was quite humorous to think of those people who are running for the border. And of course, we all like to joke of the border towns where all you see is people hopping the fence or swimming the creek to get to freedom.

Well, I'm headed for the border - but not with that attitude. Yeah, I'm going to get in my car after work tomorrow at 5:00 and drive from Colorado Springs to El Paso to meet some friends who are working with Casas por Cristo to build a house this weekend. It's going to be a long day tomorrow, but I'm pumped. I can't wait to get out of this town. So, hopefully I won't run into any crazy Mexicans, but will find my way around fine and that my car won't get stolen. :)

Pray for me! :) I love having the freedom to just get away. I'll be back Monday. Which unfortunately means that I'm not going to get to work on this blog this weekend! Oh well...

Hasta luego!
