All the stories you will read in this book are true. My life and travel experiences are a collection of true short stories--mostly funny, some serious, some informational to the location, and some spiritual, covering seventy years. I share personal insights on the road to my relationship with Jesus Christ in hopes that you, too, will not only know of him but will truly know him. One of my favorite verses, among the hundreds in the Bible, which has guided me through many things is from Jeremiah 33:3, and it says, "Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not."

Let me explain the "kid" part of this book. My oldest child was six when I became a believer. Her daddy was lost to the war in Vietnam. Later, a son came along and then two more daughters. There is no way I could have raised these kids without the help of Jesus growing me so I could grow them. The things I learned along the way were paramount in my life and theirs. However, there were many laughs along the way, and many times when I just had to shake my head and go on. If you have raised kids, I am sure you will relate.
