The drive Saturday from El Mirage, Arizona to Bloomington, California was uneventful but very beautiful. The sun was shining on the desert and the mountains as we drove through. We were oohing and aaahing all day long. It was very nice.
I really have no explanation for this super gigantic pumpkin on the hill. It was not the only one!
There is no way to capture the beauty of the drive with an iPhone camera catching the reflections in the window.
After about 320 miles we pulled into Bloomington Pentecostal Church of God about 4:30. We stopped once at a Rest Area and once at the state line to top off with diesel. We only needed 1/2 tank but it was 30 cents cheaper in Arizona.
We were last in Bloomington in October 2010. That was our first visit and it was only for a weekend. We were really impressed with Pastor John Deatherage and his family and church in those two services. They have a tremendous burden for souls. We are so glad to be here again.
We literally slipped in the back this time but there is a very good reason for that. The front entrance to the church is very tricky to navigate in the BoggsMobile and we had a very tense and exciting day getting out of the exit on the day we were leaving in 2010. You can see pictures and read the story HERE.

This time Pastor Deatherage had trimmed the tree in the back so we came in that entrance. Although the approach made it a little tight we pulled in without much trouble at all. Kelly Jo is quite a driver!
They have a nice big concrete parking lot with plenty of room to park and nice hook ups.
Choir practice Saturday evening.
This is our view for the next several days here in Bloomington.
