Day 1 of the 2010 Shout it Out Tour


Since I woke up this morning I entered a new country and travelled through 2 states. Pretty impressive hey? :) This morning I was a complete seminary/pastor nerd and went to 2 churches. I have been wanting to check out Crosspoint for quite some time so I got to go there this morning! It was great, similar to NMBC in several ways yet different in several others. I spoke briefly to Mark & Tim who I follow on Twitter. The message was powerful, and 3 people came to Christ! That always gets me so excited. I took off fairly quickly after that service as I only had 15min to make it to The Salvation Army for church 2! It is always nice to visit with old friends. It was Community Care Sunday and the guest speaker was great. So I guess with 2 services this morning I was doubly blessed? :)

After church I said my goodbye's and then Sarah & Kyle arrived, and we took off for the USA! We left Fredericton around 1pm and got to Northampton MA at 9:30pm. It was a great drive down, nice and sunny and no crazy traffic to report. I am starting to know this stretch of highway a little too well. I really enjoy travelling with Sarah & Kyle. We had some great conversations and listened to every single Hanson CD (the latest one twice!). Got some Starbucks, had Ruby Tuesday's in Portland for supper. I just love driving so much. The adventure of the Interstate Highway System down here is a thrill in and of itself. I'd love to explore more of them someday. We felt like it was really late in the night when we were driving but it wasn't really... it got dark at like 4:30pm! Anywho, great drive, lots of fun. I am addicted to this life.


We are now at our hotel in Northampton, all ready to go for the walk and show tomorrow. The hotel is decent... it's a Quality Inn. There's nothing awe-inspiring but it's clean and has free breakfast and free internet. And that's all you need really. We haven't checked out the venue yet or how close it is. We are hoping to walk there. I am so excited tomorrow's show is seated! No lining up or sore backs or anything. I am really excited for tomorrow's show... show #13... but I will say I am beginning to feel seasoned at this :) Like I am still excited but I am actually going to sleep tonight. That usually doesn't happen the night before a show. haha. Anyway. My buddies are already in bed so I'm gonna join them! Hanson tomorrow :)
