Saltshaker

I'm back. Busy the last week. Went up to Atlanta to marry our grandson. It was a good time and another goal acheived. Talking about goals. I look back over my life and the goals I have had in the past. It goes all the way back to beginning school and then the goal was to get out of high school 12 years later. Next the goal was to make it through 4 years of the USAF. Then to get married and to have children and to see them out of the house and on their way to a future. Then it was to retire after 34 years as a mailman. Then to do whatever God called me to do and go anywhere to do that. Since that time I have been to Australia 3 times, Kenya 2 times and England once.. To do the Lord's work. Now I am starting to look at what goals I have to finnish up with. The ultimate goal is to be in heaven someday. I know that I will make that one. I see Pres. Bush sr. has a goal to skyjump every 5 years. I have thought about what I would like to set as a goal when I am 80. That will be a goal in itself. One thing I would like to do is motorcycle to Michigan and back to Florida.Everyone looks at me with a question on their face. When I was 54 I bought a motorcycle and my son who also had one went on a 5,000 mile trip to Texas and back. That was a lot of fun and would like to do something like that again. I am also looking at learning to play some kind of an insturment, like a guitar or harmonica. I would also like to go on a mission trip again someplace in the world and help people experience answers to prayer. The big goal is to continue to be in His will. Share some of your goals with me. I would love to see them.
