Daily journal July 4, 2001, Menton Springs Hotel Alabama and our drive Westward not seeking gold like the original pioneers but to discover many things about this great land of God.  With a refreshing breakfast out on the front porch of this 1800's wood structured of 50 rooms 3 story hotel built by a doctor from the Northeast who discovered the Mentone Springs healing qualities and prepared to bring the whole world here.  The beautiful old piano in the specious dining room among the tapestry is worth seeing at moderate rates.

We now go off the backside Lookout Mountain in Alabama and up I-65 near Chattanooga and North on I-24 to Nashville Tennessee with a stop in Monteagle mountaintop town to take in the fourth of July parade where all the people and animals walking the main road that crosses the interstate and follows the mountaintop into uptown Monteagle with pony carts and all.  We continued on to Nashville and I-40West to Buck Snort and exit 143 for lunch at Loretta Lynn’s kitchen which she franchises to a restaurant operator for an all day buffet for some of the most awful food in the state of Tennessee in my opinion with typical artificial mashed potatoes and canned almost everything except the flies.  You'll see plenty of pictures of Loretta Lynn and Johnny Cash but no real people in person. I registered my complaint with the cashier.  This is a big problem with peoples health in our modern day.

Now it is open range to drive the speed limit + five to Memphis and on across the mighty Mississippi River bridge into Arkansas where they still have a sign up ‘No tolerance’.  No human being can stand to drive faster than 70 on the worst interstate stretch in the nation.  What about them having a sign of no tolerance when they tolerated the biggest mess in Washington of all time.  They certainly are not talking about their state grown Presidents.  It's an insult to see a sign in this state stating no tolerance.  We passed by Little Rock and continued on to Fort Smith and into Oklahoma where we found a motel believe it or not to rest our heels. This little motel is clean and American owned at about $25.00 per night.

Traffic was light today and that's one advantage of traveling on a holiday although the construction sites still have their drums up blocking traffic and charging the rent to your government on all those sorry looking orange colored drums that spell danger and death. A prayer for our nation to repent and be saved.  Our never dying souls will live forever in Heaven or Hell, whichever we choose.  We have the freedom of choice but not to abort our babies, it is to choose the devil or God and most are choosing the devil by default. Independence Day is very important to remember and about all it is anymore is a memory planted in the mines of the population because very little independence remains.  In spite of our forefathers pledging allegiance to the Egyptian god Osiris and putting his signature or symbol on our currency, God has blessed us still and gives us time to repent.  It is the secret handshake that determines and seals the deals to drain your treasury of tax dollars, we have moved far away from the Declaration. Deuteronomy 7-2 "And when the Lord thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shall make no covenant with them, nor show mercy unto them".  Restore us Lord to right. We have seen a lot of rice paddies and crop dusting in this chicken farming Tyson country. In search of pure water and natural minerals that restore and nourish the body, water will surely be the next crisis in this country and already cost $5.00 a gallon for drinking water. A lot of fireworks are being shot off today to celebrate nothing because we have lost our independence and we're slave to a judicial system.  Kids today have no idea of true history.  God has spared us through so many wars even though how our leaders serve a substitute god that is no doubt in all.  They worship Osiris the God of the sun from ancient Egypt.
