Shalom friends,

We're now in Pigeon Forge Ten. We will be in this area for 2-4 days (not sure yet). We've uploaded new videos from the trip if you are interested. This is from our trip page:

A quick stop at Havre de Grace Maryland: We stopped at the Decoy Museum here. Incredible artistry (just don't think about the poor ducks :-(

Welcome to Tennessee! Question: What did Tennessee see? Answer: The same thing Arkansas saw... never mind...

We arrived October 5. As I knew she would, Hakham Ahuva fell in love with the area immediately. You can go anywhere in the world you want but there is nowhere more beautiful, more comfortable than the Blue Ridge Mountains in the Autumn. We're a tad early for the changing of the leaves but the yearly transformation is already well under way. I just adore this area, I have since I was a kid in North Georgia and we came here for the leaves most autumns. But back then Pigeon Forge wasn't much; Cherokee (NC) and Gatlinburg (Tenn) were the places to be... not anymore! Pulling into Pigeon Forge was like driving into Vegas! Oy this place has grown! We'll be posting lots of videos and photos from here!

A few miles outside of Gatlinburg we stopped at an old fashion tent revival meeting....

Plan change: We're pushing back our arrival in Atlanta a couple of days in order to stay in these mountains longer. We now plan to arrive at Stone Mountain the day before Sukkot (October 11). This changes nothing planned otherwise.

Yom Kippur: Sunset of October 7 through nightfall of October 8

Please remember to fast on Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement) and to pray for Hakham Ahuva and I as out trip continues. Please pray especially for Ahuva's back, that HaShem will heal it or at least give her rest from the pain.

Please pray for Rebbe Larry Levine: His legs are getting bad. He can't really walk now and his left hand is very swollen. He's not sure what's going on and he requests our prayers on his behalf.Please pray also for Hakham Leah as she continues to care for both Rebbe and Froim (their son). May HaShem grant her strength and patience!

Please pray for Hakham Yochanan ben Zalman and his back pains.

Please pray for HaShem's Will as Rebbe Larry continues looking for a new physical location for Temple Beth HaShem in the Fort Bragg, CA area.

Please pray for the all of the talmidim and friends of Temple and Yeshiva Beth HaShem.

Please most of all pray for People Israel and Holy Jerusalem. May HaShem Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.

I will be broadcasting "What Matter's Most" today at 5:30 EASTERN time. Our topic, Rosh Hashana: http://templebethhashem.org/beliefs.html

Shalom my friends.
