This entry could be an award winning short story, but for brevity, it is a mediocre blog entry.
Some miracles are subtle, this one not so much. Josh' grandpa was a forester and in retirement, a "Hightree Trimmer". His bucket truck in Salmon, ID, was nearly 7 hours away and had not been driven since approximately 2014, so Able and Josh's mission for the weekend was to 1) drive to Salmon, 2) determine if the truck could be brought into a freeway worthy condition, 3) do needed maintenance, 4) drive the truck back to Garfield, and if possible 5) do a tree trimming job for Danielle. All of this they accomplished with Divine help. Yes Abel is awesome. Yes Josh's dad is ultra generous, adding to the "cash advance" on the truck purchase a roundtrip from Payette to Salmon to sign papers, two Stihl chainsaws, extra bars and chains, harnesses, rigging, and over 50 gallons of bar oil, motor oil, fuel additives, etc. and a wood stove (loaded in the dark as the first time using the boom). This sort of blessing opens so many doors that it boggles the mind, and that the effort succeeded was testament to God's goodness.
