Poor Bambi

I hope that this edition of GC’s e-news finds all of you doing well. We are officially on vacation!! We finished up on Sunday in Pell City, AL at Eden Westside Baptist Church, which has been our last concert before Christmas for over ten years. We always have a great concert and our good friend, Grover Smith along with other men at the church always cooks for us afterwards. It is a special day for us every year. We had the privilege of having another great friend of Gold City, Bill Douglas, join us on the road for our last trip. Bill lives in Santa Ana, CA but flies out to see us on a regular basis. We had a great time but I think he will be a while getting over the trip. We have a tendency to drive some people insane. I hope you got out in time Bill! Check out our photos page at http://goldcityqt.com for some of Bill’s pictures from the trip.

Poor Bambi

Some of you may remember a while back when I wrote about all the deer we have encountered along the road. Dead and alive, deer have become a common decoration along our nation’s highways. We have been fortunate in that we have never hit one. As I was driving the bus back from Pell City, I saw Bambi in the distance trying to decide if she was going to cross the highway. She stepped out in the road and I hit the brakes and blew the air horns. Being the smart animal she is, she made a good decision and turned back toward the ditch. I was relieved. Then, as if she had decided that now is a good time to die, she turns back into the road. Again, I hit the brakes and the horns. She started to go back to the ditch but then stopped and looked me in the eyes. I think she was confused. Well, I am happy to report to you that Bambi isn’t confused anymore. If anybody knows where I can get a bumper for a 2001 Prevost let me know. I am officially in the market for one.

The Gold City Christmas Challenge

Are you as sick as I am of hearing “Season’s Greetings” and “Happy Holidays?” There wouldn’t be a “Holiday” without Christ. So, we challenge you, as you do your Christmas shopping, to tell as many people, especially sales clerks, MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Let’s do all that we can to keep Christ in Christmas. From our homes to yours, Gold City wishes you all a very merry CHRISTmas!!
