A few days in Maryland, USA

From Tennessee to New York, to Maryland (via many states including New Jersey - the embroidery capital of America). We flew from Nashville to New York, hired a car and drove about 5 hours to Maryland. Under the assumption (and the advice) that America is the land of the free, where you can drive at whatever speed you like, there was a moment of pure fear for Sophia when pulled over by a State Trooper for exceeding the speed limit (which, for the record, no one was obeying), followed by a moment of pure relief to be let off with a polite warning. The highlight of our time in Maryland was not the Police pullover, but catching up with Mike and Sarah Pasalich and their friends and families for Paso's graduation from Sovereign Grace Pastors College. It was again great to meet up with some Aussie friends and especially good to be part of the graduation celebrations for Paso.
