Day #39 of Our Epic Trip

12-10-2023
Southern Trails RV Resort, Unadilla, Georgia

We got up early to take the boys for a walk before it rained. We looked at some of the other rigs and found a Smart Car that fit perfectly on the back of a semi truck. After our walk, since Daniel loves the rain, we sat outside under the awning to have our coffee. It was peaceful and relaxing.

We attended church at the little chapel on the grounds of the campground. The pastor is from Michigan. We haven’t been to church in a very long time. We both went to Catholic schools but attending church and being religious weren’t high on our priority list during adulthood. Now that we’ve moved to Tennessee, church is a way for many people to build community so we thought we’d give it a try today. One of the first things said by the pastor was that God had required animal sacrifice to be in “his” presence. This pastor said it like murder of innocent beings was ok. We believe in loving all beings. So this was not a great first foray into church-going for us. For a more compassionate view on religion, we really like the movie A Prayer for Compassion.

I hold that the more helpless a creature, the more entitled it is to protection by man from the cruelty of man.

We went to Walmart and got a big bunch of collard greens. We have been sautéing greens every day for dinner using only water and spices, of course. On the way home, we drove by a house possessed with the Christmas spirit.
