Dead Deer

What I heard was true, West Virginia is like the East Coast's Arkansas...

While trekking through West Virginia the van pulled over for a routine bathroom break in the middle of nowhere. (17% of WV is developable, the other 83% is not - so there is a lot of the middle of nowheres) A very groggy group of pm's get out of the van to see 5 or so men decked out in camo proudly standing over their pick-up trucks. As we walk into the gas station we glance in the beds of the pickup trucks and see several freshly killed deer - complete with all the things that make dead deer gross. As if that wasn't enough, while coming out of gas station one couldn't help but notice the Jeep parked in front of the gas station with a dead deer spralled out on the front grill - hanging there like a proud man trophy.

this friends, is West Virginia!

Actually West Virginia was more than dead deer on a Jeep grill. The trip went really well and the people were great. The Lord did a lot in people's hearts and it was good to spread around the word about ZHOP and internships, as well as pray and encourage the churches and Houses of Prayer. Yey for traveling. More later, it's late.
