Dear Family and Friends,
This has been one of those rare days a pappa can only dream about. After a short night in the motorhome with a couple interruptions I rose this morning to take the walk with the dogs and then shower. Jason and Jo provided an excellent breakfast and then we were off to Sabbath School. Timothy attends an excellent Sabbath School with lots of activities, music, stuffed animals and love. Its a great program produced by an excellent team.
At around 1 pm both Sylvia and Nikki arrived. We had a great lunch and after a while we migrated to the beach where everyone had a great time. Even the sun peeked through for awhile. To see Keanna doing a dive into the sand and Kallie digging her little feet into the sand, to see Timothy roaming around working with his beach toys.
Finally the cool air got to us all and we headed back up the hill to the house where we talked, looked at travel photos and watched the kids play even more. Now Marilyn and I are in the motorhome, I am blogging and she is reading. The TV is playing a Reese Whitherspoon movie and the dogs are resting after a big day for them.
Jason is so excited about his new career teaching English and already has stories of his young people. He loves helping kids get ready for life and Jo loves working with her little people as well. The weather has been pretty good today, cool, foggy and limited sunshine. In spite of a world where things for the most part are challenging a weekend like this is a great chance to recharge emotional and spiritual batteries. Its just fun to see the whole family together under one roof, if only Steve could have been here then we would have been complete.
I'll have some photos tomorrow night, can't download them tonight.
Lets remember to keep Irene in our thoughts and prayers as she faces some tough decisions right away. She is very precious to me and I know many of you know her as well. Oh that this horrible disease would just be beaten.
Good night to each and all,
love
tim

Good Morning Tim!
It looks like you had a pretty good week ending with a very special Sabbath with family and friends. Of course the break from the valley heat was a welcomed change also. You had some good work last week also. Good news that work is picking up again.
By Friday Roger was feeling back to "normal" again. That stomach flu seems to hit hard and fast. So far I have escaped.
It's good to hear that Carrol is still off Chemo and doing well!
We went to a Steve Green concert last night. It was a bit disappointing. He now has a live band that drowns out his beautiful voice. It just didn't seem quite right to see him come on stage in jeans and casual shirt. The Cuban drummer put on quite a show and wore his hat backwards. Steve always does a beautiful testimony and is sincere in his commitment. I just miss the dignity and beauty of his former concerts. Am I getting old or what? NO! I think it is more than that. God is a God of beauty and order......
Have another great week.
We love you ~ Carol
