Yes, but I don't think it would be quite as beneficial for Devon to sell EVERYTHING as you might think. First of all, he doesn't HAVE that much stuff, and the most valuable things he owns are his guns and his computer, two things which you'd pretty much have to pry from his cold dead hands to get him to part with.

Devon is doing this with faith that, if it's God's will, then God will provide, which I am also confident of. And if it's not... God will at least not let him wind up in the gutter, you know? I believe that firmly.

So, I'm not worried.

I've given him tips on how to survive a Pacific Northwest Ra--I mean Winter, so don't worry. ;)

The neat thing is, he's moving closer to meeeee! Woo. We threw some plans up into the air before he left about visiting...since he's a ferry ride and a drive away... so, if he does make it across the border, I'll take goooood care of him, you watch. :D

UPDATE!!!!


Well, I talked to Devon today....

He's doing okay, not great, but okay. He was very tired, having not slept in 30 hours... heh.

He wants to thank you guys for your prayers and support, though they haven't found anything yet. Please, continue to pray that God will open the right doors and keep him safe and on the right track.

Um... I guess that's it for now. Further updates... whenever he calls, I guess!

thanks.

Thanks for the update, Gloria. I haven't spoken to Devon since Monday (only able to check my email for the first time this week tonight), and the suspense has been killing me.

*nods* I miss him too, Joe.

He's then at Washington now? Did he tell what he's been doing?

Tell him he's missed by everyone around here, hopefully he'll find something to settle in well, yes.

Yes!
I have talked to Devon, I talked to him a bit tonight, actually...

They have an apartment, and are more or less moved in, now, but they still don't have jobs, and won't even have phone service until Friday. Internet may be even longer... Um, I guess that's about it.

Devon seems to be doing all right, though a bit apprehensive about the futuer...

But yay! He's got a roof over his head, so that's good!

Where in Washington did Devon end up now? I can't recall if he mentioned...wasn't there some big city in that state that had a famous tower building? Seattle? No? Okay, don't laugh at me, my US geographie is really not the best. ;)

Not more then it is said in the news, and that's not much either.
I found <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2002/US/South/10/10/ ... html">this article</a> on cnn.com informative, maybe it covers some information you didn't hear yet...

Thanks for the update Gloria :)

Please tell him he might check in with a library for internet access.

Sears has free AOL disks down here so he might check where he's at. At least it would be something till they can afford better.

Last I heard he was headed for Seattle and yes it is famous for the Space Needle.

Hello!

Post by Ironpaw »

Okie, I am using temporary Juno that will last me for like... five seconds, so I can only post something real quick here: First off, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for everything. Just... knowing you guys miss me and have been praying for me helps SO much. It gives me the confidence to do the things I need to without worrying about it. Thank you.

Secondly, as Gloria said, I am in a very nice apartament in Federal Way, we've got a bit of money coming in as my father is working freelance and there's lots of job opps for him, though he's using my car. I just got the plates changed, so I feel like not so much of an outsider. I guess there are many police/sheriff's deps that are hiring around and I found that a Lt in the King county SO lives in the complex, we've been talking, he's really cool.

So, I must go right now, thank you all so much, as soon as I get DSL or a steady dialup I'll be in touch and catch up on stuff! God is good!

-Devon

*shouts, then looks around at crewmates sheepishly*

Woo-Hooooo! Glad to hear from you, Devon! It's a relief to hear from ya!

Not that I expected anything bad to happen, but we all missed you a lot. The place isn't the same without you. : )

--------------

We've got a crew dog now. A Black Lab just showed up on the porch, waiting at the door, so we let him in, and he acts like he owns the place. *shrugs* We'll feed him and see if he wants to stick around.
