I'm not exactly sure why, but every year each of us who visits the Loughborough church seems to record this same image. It's very interesting to me.<br />Is it the open door? The contrast of red and green? The path leading us to fellowship?<br />Whatever it is, it catches all of us. Maybe you can tell us what this view means to you.<br /><br />In 2007, I remember carrying a shoeless Laura L. on my back down this path. And I remember watching tiny Thomas H. running back and forth after HBC. Oh. and in 2006 watching Scotty run back and forth just like he owned the whole place. --M.E.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3767520828207626386-8372131326950607146?l=ottercreekinengland.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>fabricsnobhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12020490996845072447noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3767520828207626386.post-12642272389726217402008-01-16T11:21:00.000-08:002008-01-16T09:21:52.059-08:00<span style="font-family:arial;">Here's my journal from the 2005 trip for those interested.</span> <ul style="font-family:arial;"><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/10/england-journal-saturday-15-october.html">The England Journal: Saturday 15 October</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/10/england-journal-sunday-16-october.html">The England Journal: Sunday 16 October</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/10/england-journal-monday-17-october.html">The England Journal: Monday 17 October</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/10/england-journal-tuesday-18-october.html">The England Journal: Tuesday 18 October</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/10/england-journal-wednesday-19-october.html">The England Journal: Wednesday 19 October</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/10/england-journal-thursday-20-october.html">The England Journal: Thursday 20 October</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/10/england-journal-friday-21-october.html">The England Journal: Friday 21 October</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/10/england-journal-saturday-22-october.html">The England Journal: Saturday 22 October</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/11/england-journal-sunday-october-23.html">The England Journal: Sunday, October 23</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/11/england-journal-pictures.html">The England Journal: Pictures</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/11/england-journal-sermon.html">The England Journal: Sermon</a></span></h3></li><li><h3 class="post-title entry-title"><span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="http://jphilwilson.blogspot.com/2005/11/england-journal-final-thoughts.html"><span style="font-size:85%;">The England Journal: Final Thoug</span>hts</a></span></h3></li></ul>I'll definitely post more about our trip.

If you've gone with us, or been on the England end, I hope you get to relive some fun memories and tell us what you've taken from our times. If you are interested in our work, I hope that this project will give you not just the facts but the reasons why, and that you'll be able to connect to our work on a spiritual and emotional level. If you ran across it randomly, I hope you at least get a laugh or a smile.<br /><br />I'm still working on getting links, photos, etc., in place, but feel free to start posting!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3767520828207626386-7550508547801558032?l=ottercreekinengland.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Tiffanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04053605927029868475noreply@blogger.com1
