How Buffalo Jim & Buffalo Gal Met The Lord brought Buffalo Jim and I together November 3, 1997. Buffalo Jim' ex-in-laws introduced us on that special day.
His ex-in-laws and former brother and sister-in-law were in town visitin' their daughter (who lived south of town), Buffalo Jim (he lived in town) and their grandkids. He had taken off a week's vacation so he could visit with them. Even though Buffalo Jim and their daughter had been divorced for a long while, they 'still' considered him as their son-in-law.
They were regular customers of mine at the motel where I managed. He drove up that day and parked close to the office doors where I could see him. He went to their room, and in a bit, here came "Pop" (as we called him) and Buffalo Jim in the motel office. He introduced us and Pop got a cup of coffee, while we exchanged pleasantries.
I didn't see them again for a day or two. I wanted to visit with these great folks, but I worked everyday durin' the week, and they were always gone when I left for the day. So, one mornin' as Pop came in and got a cup of coffee, I asked him if I could come up on Saturday if they were gonna be free and take them to lunch and visit 'fore they left on Sunday to drive back home. He checked with Momma, and no special plans were made for Saturday. Saturday it was! I had more chores to do and knew I'd be runnin' late that day, so I gave them a call. Asked if we could change plans and make it for dinner, instead of lunch. They said that would be fine. I got at the motel 'round 4:00pm and we visited 'fore we all went to dinner. For dinner, their was Pop and Nan (Pop's wife), his son George and his wife Rose, and to my surprize, Buffalo Jim came along. 'Deep down', I was tickled pink! We ate buffet style at a great restuarant. Had great conversation with all of them!! When I got ready to pay, Buffalo Jim wouldn't let me pay for all of them. So, it ended up with him and I splittin' the bill. I said 'my goodbyes' to all and as I was leavin', Buffalo Jim asked for my phone number. That was our first meetin'!
God works in mysterious ways and he brought Buffalo Jim and I together that special Saturday afternoon, November 3, 1997. We're sure glad he did!!
