We are in Arizona and is it ever hot here. The bus is doing all it can to stay cool but its not doing very well at it. I would like to get another bus that has a bigger air conditioning system that works right. I found a real nice 95 Eagle for only $80.000. That's nothing for God. Well I told him I would ask.
We are heading to Phoenix today to see my aunt and uncle who are not doing real well right now. I wish you all would pray for them and the whole family.
I do have to say the our bus is doing well and we are indeed thankful. For you tech types, I just switched to a new oil for the engine- Delo 100 Straight 40 weight and its good stuff. We have just drove across the hottest toughest terrain and I changed it when I left home. I have used no oil at all. So if ya got a 2 stroke Detroit Diesel, you outta check that stuff out.
Skylar and Standalee did not make this trip due to the fact that it was probably going to be HOT. yeah well
We have had some wonderful concerts lately and our sound is starting to gel again. We have almost nailed down all the tunes for the new album. We have even pulled out some way back classics we are doing in our concerts.
So much has happened since I updated. Lets see. The Homecoming concert in Tulsa was ( different ) At least the ending. We made it to NY and had a super concert with Tim Lovelace in Lindonville, The best response we have ever had there. They let us in to Canada with the bus and back into the states without our birth certificates. I do love singing "over there " We saw Niagara Falls again and that's just wonderful to see.
We got to spend a couple of days in PA with Karen Knight, she got some of us tickets to the Sight & Sound Theater , that's something else. Skylar and I went to ride the train at Strasburg. It was one of my favorite days of my life ( so far ) . We hit the Dutch Wonderland and Hershey's Chocolate World too. ( They know how to brainwash ya there )
Then we took a day to look at Gettysburg and Manassas VA. The new visitor center in Gettysburg is brand new and one of the best.
I know I'm forgetting something ( Oh Yeah , A super weekend in Tulsa ) And my 47th Birthday..and the TV Taping at Canton
but we took off for AZ to sing at Westside Baptists 30th anniversary in El Paso ( WOW what a revival ) and now we are off to Phoenix to see my uncle and aunt and then to Oracle AZ to be with the Worthmans. ( Used to be in Tombstone AZ )
( Sierra Vista is in there somewhere. )
THEN to finish the trip off with the 50th anniversary of Louis Johnson at the Tucson Baptist Temple. I do believe the Weatherfords have sung for him almost every one of the 50 years.
He will be retiring after our concert on sunday night and he will be very mush missed by us.
And then the long drive home. ( To try and work on the bus air conditioning a little more ) OR get that new bus.. Yeah.. bout time. I'm claiming it.

I got the Myspace thing going too. ( This is really My Space right here)
