Remember my last post when I mentioned I was out “looking” for land and I came across the ‘For sale’ sign? The lady pictured above is the one who demanded encouraged me to take a picture of the sign and call the listing agent…and that’s how it all began!

But seriously Carolyn has been my biggest support from the very beginning. She drove COUNTLESS miles with me alllll across the Back Mountain and beyond and usually along the way she’d tell me a story about so and so who lives there… She knows the area like the back of her hand!

She was also the one who sat in my truck while it was running out of gas so I could hop in my realtors vehicle to “go look” at the property that I now own. She sat in my truck to assure it wouldn’t get stolen, all the while, without concern for her own safety! But if you know Carolyn, you have no doubt she could hold her own with anyone who threatened harm!

Carolyn has taken countless trips with me out to Teaberry acres, offered her vast amounts of knowledge and support, and has dreamed the dream right along side of me. She prayed with me at the property when I committed it to the Lord and has encouraged me beyond measure.

So tonight. Tonight we celebrated. I am a firm believer in celebrating what God has done. We ate and gave thanks for God’s abundant provision.

I want to publicly thank Carolyn for not only housing me for the past year while THE121 was being built but for always walking along side me in what (at times) seemed like such an endless and daunting process!

To know Carolyn, is to love Carolyn and I am grateful.
