Had breakfast at Family Ties restaurant before church this morning. It is my 3rd favorite breakfast place in Crossville & the only one open on Sunday. Even 3rd place in Crossville is very good.
I had wondered if attendance was dropping a little at Cumberland Fellowship. I almost always go to the 9AM service. The last couple of Sundays I was there it seemed that there were more open seats than previously. Today was just the opposite, there were a LOT of people. As I left the parking lot looked like there was also going to be a lot of people at the second service.
Remember MasterCard's "Priceless" commercials from a few years ago? This morning the church showed a video "starring" one of the Pastor's. The church is holding finance/budgeting classes trying to get members out of debt and help people be more responsible with their finances. The Pastor was outdoors wearing a sleeveless tee shirt and carrying a shotgun. He said, "This is a Remington Tactical XS 12 gauge shotgun, cost $469." Then he held up some shotgun shells and said, "These are 6 double ought buckshot shells, cost $39." He then pulled out his wallet and took out a couple of credit cards. In the next scene you saw the credit cards nailed to a pallet. He opened fire blasting away at the credit cards. His final comment was, "Freedom from credit card debt, priceless." He got everyone's attention. I thought it was great and joined in the applause.
I did some rock busting and a little digging this afternoon. I managed to "cut" a 3" deep trench across the top of the rock, so that the drainage pipe will lay down in the trench I cut. It wasn't to difficult. The rock is something like sandstone. I could break it up with a pick. I also dug on a little further to see if I would have to remove more rock. So far so good. I'm down to rock but the trench is deep enough. By then my back said it didn't want to do any more digging today.
I mounted the electrical panel in the shed. I will probably take it back off the conduit when I pull the wire through into the cabin, but now that everything is ready that will be easy enough.
It was cloudy all day but warm enough that I was comfortable with no coat, just long sleeve shirt.
I took a picture of our new neighbors driveway this morning on my way to church.
God is good. May He bless you an yours.
