Adventures in Waiting

I went to help a friend work with some university students on Thursday. It was a good time and we are going to start meeting with about 10 students every Friday. I expect that before I leave, my friend, Grant will ask me to talk with them about science, creation, and the Bible since many of the students are asking about it...but that is not really the point of this blog...

...Grant needed money. So we went to the main bank building for a large, respectable bank. There were several floors and a security systems that rivals the Lubbock airport! We went to the 2nd floor and to a room called "Casa de Cambio" which I interpreted as "House of Change"...that seems like a reasonable place to cash a check (something that Grant had done there several times already). After waiting for about 20 minutes, we found out this so-called house for changing money in the main bank building, well . . . errr, it didn't have any money!

Next, we went to get gas. This should be easy, right...wrong! We pulled up and there were several attendants standing around. Grant asked one of them if he could get gas. The attendant responded with a "No" but in about 5 minutes we could get gas. Evidently, there was a shift change about to happen and the attendants did not want to handle any more gas until the shift change was over . . . it reminds me of nurses changing shifts, but this was only for gasoline, not people's life! ...sigh...

Check back soon for more adventures!
Enjoy!
