SALLY: Oh my, John should have been back by now
We need to leave for the airport in one hour
(Phone rings)
JOHN: Sally, I am on my way, but traffic is slow
I forgot today is the estate auction show
JOHN: Everyone in the county is here in Bayard
Cars parked on the street and front yards
Please find out if our flight has any delays
Then check traffic to find an alternate way
SALLY: Ok, drive safe, I will be all ready to go
(Sally prays to God)
Lord, keep John safe, You are in control
Time is running short in catching our flight
Guide through this situation by Your might
(Reaches Sue at airport)
SALLY: Is flight 113 at gate 3 still on time today
SUE: No, a medical emergency caused a delay
Sorry, the flight is running one hour behind
SALLY: That will work for us, thanks for your time
(Thank you, Lord, for answer to prayer)
(Calls and listens to Iowa travel report)
Travel around Bayard is at a crawl
Especially on Interstate 35 overall
Best east-west route is Highway 34
Add extra commute time than before
(John arrives home at 1:00)
SALLY: I prayed to God for your safety
We can still make it, don't worry
Our flight time has a one hour delay
Taking Highway 34 is the better way
JOHN: Honey, you handled all of this great
I wish I had patience like you to wait
When I pray, it is like talking to a wall
But God seems to answer when you call
(John puts the suitcases in the trunk and they leave)
