Doug & Heidi McClure



May as turned out to be a great month for us. We are so blessed and want to give God all the glory for the good gifts He gives to us. We are so pleased to welcome Doug McClure into our family. We have prayed for all of our daughters that God would lead them to godly men who would love God and and want to to thank God for the marriage of Heidi and Doug on May 18th. We look forward to celebrating this marriage with a reception for them on July 5 from 1-4pm at 1st Baptist Church in Longview, WA.

TN to WA

Well we are almost there. We left TN on Tuesday and traveled to Hannibal MO and had a great visit with the Booth family there. On Thursday we drove across MO and then up I-29 through Iowa and then headed West on I-90 through South Dakota. About midway through SD highway I-90 was closed due to a blizzard at Rapid City. So much for seeing Mt Rushmore. On Friday morning we traveled 200 miles straight South and hit I-80 at N Platte, Nebraska and tried to go West again. At Ogallala, NE we found I-80 was closed for the day and the whole night. Again due to high winds and snow. We left Ogallala this morning about 7:30am. The road was opened about 5:30am. It was a bit snowy but we made it through. We drove for 900 miles today and ended up in Boise, Idaho at about 8:45pm. We should be able to make it into Longview tomorrow. What's up with all the snow in May?
