Clermont

Hello Clermont!

Racquel and I spent the day driving around the town in the hopes of getting to know the area and the people better. Clermont is definitely a beautiful place -streets are lined with palm trees and orange groves are scattered throughout the city.

One of our stops was at the First United Methodist Church where we met Misty Leistikow. I really connected with Mrs. Leistikow once we discovered that Texas was home to the both of us.

During our chat, we also learned that she has two sons who text constantly with their friends, even while they’re sitting right next to each other. We also talked about how great technology can be, but how she thinks it has sometimes severed personal and deeper conversations between people.
