Sea to Sea in Kennawack

What a great visit from the C2C cyclists in Kennewick (I know that some of them wanted Kennewick to rhyme with Chilliwack, as in Kenniwack) on Sunday. We worshipped with them, helped feed them lunch, drove them to places like laundromats and REI, and just hung out with them, too. We put on a skit for them using bikes and some decent humor. My great line about the "goathead theology" was lost when my mike was not working. Goatheads are the thorns in the tires (not the flesh although they will go there, too) that are causing havoc with the cyclists. I was going to tell them that they were invented by Bush and the Department of Homeland Security to prevent invasions from Canadian cyclists and that the gathering in Kennewick showed that it didn't work. Because there they were. All the way from Canada via Seattle.

By the way, goathead theology teaches that 'goatheads were not in the Garden of Eden but have "Total Depravity" written all over them' and that changing a flat tire is a bit like getting cleansed from a sin. Then the C2C devotional book had a very cool devotion on the wheel and the parts of the wheel and how they fit together to make the wheel work.

Go do something beautiful!
