This morning when I awoke in an empty house, sun shining, and people running around like ants. I thought today would be another normal day, and it was. But Taylors trip to Germany is a-go. He jumps on a plane sores through the ash-filled air to the land of Schnitzel to work through the hands of God. Tonight, the group, or team, he is going with got together to talk about if they should still go. This trip has been planned for months now. They spoke about it, shared thoughts, looked up flights, and looked at ashed areas. They have decided they are going, but have asked if God wills it he will stop the flight.
Ironic how Mandi and I will be here till Monday and we are seeing him off tomorrow. Here is the kicker, he is coming back Monday.
So, from this morning to tonight, I didn't know Taylor is leaving. Now it has dawned on me that he won't be here tomorrow. I suppose Mandi took it the same way, but is taking it worse on the ending half. But, the world-known couple doesn't let shadows snap at their ankles. They both are sharing laughs, just they have all week.
I'm more worried about their trip, they all seemed so refreshed and calm in the room talking about it. Though this volcano has brought many airlines to their knees, leaving people sleeping on their suitcases and floors of airports, and leaving most homesick. This volcano packs a nasty punch, but they all have faith that they will make it.
Here is a REAL UNEDITED picture of the volcano, Eyjafjallajokull, yes, that is the real name too...
YES, You're eyes are not playing tricks. That is lighting, lava, ash, and ice all in one picture. Although no one in Europe and the States are getting lava and lighting mixture of death. Iceland is still okay, only one side of the small island takes a beating. But it still leaves many people homeless.
My heart goes out to those in need, those without a home, those who are sleeping on cold tile airport floors, and medication transportation.
Just hold on a little bit longer, we can make it through this.
