This day was actually quite as far as Datim activity! To our surprise we still could not relax because we expected something to happen around each corner. Even the anticipation of night raid made it difficult to sleep.
It was strange. It was not fear. It was more like tension. Anyhow, we identified the problem, prayed about it, and won’t let that happen again! We need to rest when we can!

Exhibit #13: I was going to make my Dead Sea run (down hill, winding road, lowest place on earth). But before I could get out of Arad, I discovered that I didn’t have brakes! It looked like someone tampered with the belts, thus causing lost of hydraulics. Hmmm, would they do that?

Exhibit #14: Anyhow, we had van towed to the dealer (still under warranty) in Beersheva, about 45 miles.
