Wednesday we stayed in Hampshire, IL. About noon we went over to the Coon house and ate lunch with Jesse. She is an engaging young lady. Her parents said she has active PDD,(I think that was it). She is 21 but has the mind of a 12 year old. She is very articulate, and talks a lot. She is an expert on all things Disney and remembers many story lines from books she has read. Her mom worked hard with her to do her studies and drill her in her schooling. She recently graduated from high school.
Jesse fixed us lunch of soup, Teresa helped with sandwiches. We then took a tour of Hampshire. Jesse directed us to the Blocks butcher/grocery store in town where I bought ingredients for curry. We got back home about 3:45 or so after her dad got there. We then prepared dinner and ate about 5:30 when Debbie got home from work. After that, we got went to church.
During the service, Henry showed our DVD presentation, then preached a message on “a cup of water” given in the name of a disciple. Jesus told us that if we give just a cup of water to anyone, even in the name of a disciple, we will not lose our reward. It was quite good, IMHO.
When we got back to the Coon’s house, we had cheesecake for dessert and showed some photos of Japanese Engrish. Some of it is so funny. About 10:00 pm we left for the hotel and packing and getting ready for the morning.
