The Creation Museum

Last Sunday afternoon my friends Charlotte, Evie, & I loaded up into Pam’s car, & the four of us hit the road for Kentucky. It was quite a drive, but Charlotte had found us a great AirBnB house, so we got there and crashed for the night. The next morning we were up early & drove about 45 minutes down the road to the Creation Museum. It really was very well done. Their theory was that dinosaurs lived when man did, and that dinosaurs are what the legends of dragons, which are in every culture around the world, are based on. Something to think about.

There was a huge display about the Ark. When the museum was built, they hadn’t even thought about The Ark Experience, and in fact that was one of the things that encouraged them to build The Ark – people were so interested in that part of the museum. It really was very interesting. I loved this diorama of Noah and his family building the altar and making the sacrifice to God when they were able to come out of the ark, because we talk about that in Godly Play.

Last Wednesday Pix

I got this picture of Mallory and her friend McKenzie, from Fort Mill, after the tournament last week. They have been playing together for years, so I was glad we got to see her after the match and had time for one last picture.

Then as soon as we could, Jeff hit the road for Indiana, to attend the funeral of his Aunt Butch, and I hit the road for Rock Hill, for the championship York County Middle School Athletic Association game. I got there just as it started and found Andrew & Sherri in the stands – Jenny got there at half time when she got off work. Our Sullivan Falcons were playing Saluda Trail Middle School, and Saluda Trail has won the championship for many years in a row. In a hard fought battle that literally came down to the last play of the game, Sullivan pulled out of 14-12 victory. The team just went crazy. So much fun. Adam, #54, is right in the middle of the picture, running towards the coach. Loved it.

Final Day as a Lady Blue Eagle Golfer

The second day of the state tournament didn’t go as well for Mallory, but we are so proud of all she has accomplished in her high school career. The course really was a pretty one.

Her dad was standing right next to the green when she hit her last putt, and she headed straight into his arms. What a ride these past six years have been.
