How ya like my hat? Jordan River (true story)

    I bought this hat, when I was in Israel in 1995. As I packed for the Ten Day Holy Land Tour, I never thought about a hat to keep the sun off my head. There was sun and sand everywhere, Israel’s color was tan with not much greenery. Our guide took us down to a bend in a little river where a friend of mine got baptized. She was part of our group, but also from my church. I was all ready baptized, but I really wanted to do it again, because it was the Jordan River. Wow, the Jordan River, to cool.

     I had a chance to ride a camel while I was there, but my pastor talked me out of it. He said they are filthy smelling animals and I would smell bad all day long. So I decided not to. I’ve regretted that decision ever since. I will probably never get a chance to ride a camel again.
