Count your blessing one bye one, and we mean one by one

So we made it to the town of grand ronde with hardly and any energy left and very hungry stomachs. All the RV parks were closed and all but two little stores were opened. One had all snacks and the other one was back across town. It is now about 8:45 with no food but what we had packed on our bikes with no place to stay. We passed a church and stopped in only to find no one was at the church. A man lived next to the church and we knocked on his door and had all our prayers answered in about 38 sec. He gave us the number to his pastor who pastored a NAZARENE church down the road. We called and he said i will be waiting at the door of the church for you. We love NAZARENES! This was the first moment we knew that god was truly watching out for us on this trip. We got to use the kitchen, in which we made a huge pot of beans and ate two loafs of expired English muffins we picked up in a small town a couple miles back for a dollar. Having bathrooms and sleeping under a roof made for a great night sleep. Especially since we were soaking wet and very tired from the
very fast up hill climb to the small town. This was also the first time we realized that we have been able to use a bathroom the whole trip so far. We cleaned up and left a very big thank you note in the mooring.
