Bobby and I wanted to share an amazing story, of how God can lead us to make a decision, even though "it doesn't make sense." I've always wanted Bobby and me to go to Africa for our Anniversary and see "God's creation." We had saved our money for a long time for two African safaris and...

Our heavy equipment operators, mechanics, and several of our pican workers have been teaming up the last few days to move several large shipping containers into one area on the property.
