Texas Faith and Freedom Tour: Day Two

Day Two of the Texas Faith and Freedom Tour has concluded... already! Time is going by far too fast! I wanted to share with you all some of the photos I got today. Our day began by boarding a bus at 8:00 am, and heading for Austin, the Capital.

Our first stop was to the Texas State History Museum, where this HUGE star was.

From there we traveled to the Capital Grounds, where we had lunch, fellowshipped, and enjoyed the friendly squirrels and birds. (They really enjoyed our chips!)

After lunch, Wesley Strackbein and Bill Potter spoke to us about various topics, including Bill Potter sharing the story of Robert Louis Dabney.

We then toured the Texas State Capital

And finally, we visited some memorials surrounding the Capital, and the Texas State Cemetery before loading up and heading back to the Menger Hotel. While we were at the Texas State Cemetery, we saw this gravestone- a distant relative perhaps?! :)

After we arrived back at the Menger Hotel, some dear friends of ours from here in San Antonio, Diana and Regina Hawley, picked us up for dinner. We met some other friends, Matt and Emily Deamer at a Mexican restaurant, and they had a surprise for us! Our friend Micah Pogue, from back home, had flown in early today! It was so nice to see the Hawleys and Deamers again after six months, and we all had a wonderful time of fellowship, filled with much laughter! :)
