GETTING TO MANILA, ALL IN ONE DAY
A few months ago, I was asked to share the teaching of a class with a good friend, Tim Standish, who works for the GEOSCIENCE RESEARCH INSTITUTE in Loma Linda. We’re in Manila, at the ADVENTIST INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE for ADVANCED STUDIES, addressing a class of pastors, administrators, and students about the relationship between our religion and modern science.
The adventure started at 4:30 a.m. on Tuesday in Bend, when the alarm clock went off and Gail and I popped out of bed, threw on our clothes, jumped in the car with the two carry-on bags, and drove to Redmond/Bend Airport. I got out, we kissed good-bye, neither of us remembering the bag of sandwiches and fruit I’d packed the night before - writing a BIG NOTE to myself not to forget and leave it in the refrigerator. My plane left at 6:15, and I remembered my breakfast bag about 1/2-way to Portland.
Ah well, I had three hours in the Portland Airport, so I had a “Tree-Hugger’s Scramble” in the grill you can see, near my gate…
