Shortly after breakfast (plates still on the table). The day's crowd (a few local folks missing), getting
ready to hit the streets. Around the table are the following: Carlos Gordillo (Tustin CA), Frederic Gray (Tampa FL),
Kyle Monzon (SB), Royce Bell (SB), Ross Triplett (Sparks NV), Ethan Longhenry (Norwalk OH), Dick Tidwell (Cary NC), Mike Bullington
(SB).
Curiously missing is Larry Smith (elder at MV, SB), who took time from
his important service-based business to be on the street, every day...every day. This may have been taken the morning he had
to take care of the customers, but by that afternoon, he was back on the streets with us. Elder Leon Hall was in Veterans
Hospital (Loma Linda), following surgery. This and other pics were made by John Garcia (elder at MV, SB). Mugging along
the wall on the left is Dirk Driskill (elder at MV, SB). Standing on the right is Lee Bell (Royce's wife...the only woman
to hit the streets with us and one of only three who assisted in teaching classes--shame on others, who could have been here,
for not sharing the load!).

Planning for the day's activities, with Carlos Gordillo (back to the camera), Royce Bell (trying to look
important), Kyle Monzon (doing the same), Ross Triplett (peaking through the valley), Dick Tidwell (wishing we would hush
and hit the streets with him), and Ethan Longhenry (back to the camera, probably anxious that Royce was going to send him
back to the County Records Building to be arrested for doing the Lord's work).

As the group prepared to leave, we shared our confidence that we would all be safe and took time to ask the blessing
of God upon our efforts.

Two of the vehicles packed for the day's activities. That's Kyle's mom's car on the left,
packed, though you cannot see it. The other car is packed with (look for them) tables (white), chair
(folding), Bibles...bibles and more bibles (in the boxes), and other needed items, such as the banners, coats, bottles of
water, etc. On Friday, we had the car on the right, packed all the way to the headliner. What a blast!!
