Reunion with a Cajun friend.

We were only about 131 miles from Lafayette, so we slept a bit later than usual. It was a bright day and a bit warmer than it had been. Stacy called and gave us good news about her kids for which we thank God. We also called Simon and planned to meet him at a Cuban restaurant which turned out to be closed on Saturday. Go figure. I also found a gas station selling for $3.65. I hadn’t seen a price that low for 6 weeks. We checked in around 12:30 while talking with Emily. She thinks they will be moving to Utah. We are praying for God to intervene so they can stay in the Midwest. We met Simon at 1 and ate lunch at the restaurant we had used for several years. He is quite a liberal Democrat, so we don’t discuss anything political. We are good friends, however. We left him, has an ice cream cone, and went shopping for a dress for Easter. We spent 2 hours running up and down a local mall without success. Evelyn wants a dress with some sort of sleeves, but they are not to be found. We came back to the motel to rest a while before going to Mulatte’s to dance. We decided to forego dinner and just ate some catfish nuggets between dances. We thought the band was poor but had the dance floor virtually to ourselves. We will go to worship on Palm Sunday tomorrow.
