Oct. 4

Hello,
We made it to Creston, IA late Monday night. The GPS took us two hours out of our way. Dan and I both watched it carefully and so we think we know where it messes us up. Don't buy a Garmin!
We also had some van problems. The van started acting up and shaking. Dan had the computer monitor so he hooked it up. It seems that the fuel sock, in the fuel tank is plugged. So we fueled and kept it full. We did get good fuel mileage, for that we are so thankful.
I was not feeling well so Dan did most of the driving. When we finally got here, he crashed. He was in so much pain, but he knew i could not drive. He slept all night through. Then had to rest all of yesterday afternoon.
We were able to drive by the College and found the transmitter. It is on some land that the lease is up in June of next year. So Dan plans to go and talk with the president tomorrow. We drove to Afton and found the building where the Baptist Church used to be. While we were looking around the town's friendly neighbor came and spoke to us. Seems a truck came and cleared out the building. No one knows where any of the people have gone. So as of right now Afton is on hold. Creston is the hub. Afton really does not have much of anything. Searching more tomorrow...
