Time has Been Flying By

It doesn't seem like a month since my last post.



Jane hosted Christmas Dinner here, it was a great time to get together.
On 12/30 we left on a four day get-a-way with the Bundys to the Dominican Republic to relax and also meet our 90 day visitors requirement while we wait for our "permes" [Visas] to be completed.



New Years day on the beach. [the white is sand, not snow!]





Upon our return on Monday it was time to gear up for the Cowman Int. School roof replacement project. Wed.-Sat.





Since then we have only been able to work on Jan.12 and Saturdays so as not to disturb the students. We hope to finish in a couple more Saturdays weather permitting.


Hanna and her mother Julie left last Monday. Hanna just finished serving here at the clinic for a year, and what a year it was! We will miss her.

Jane left for Port-A-Prince yesterday with five others to get some paperwork done on her drivers license and purchase some of the famous Einstein Bowls for the gift shop.
They will return tomorrow afternoon.

Tomorrow is also my brother's birthday..... miss you Bruce!

It was great to see you had a nice Christmas gathering with so many familiar faces.

Looking closer Bud, it looked like Amigo, Peter, and Jonas with you on the roof. The new roof looks great. I'm sure even the old tin will find a use.

It was good you got some R&R on the beach in the DR. New Years Day on the beach. Here it would have to be ice fishing. Victor is getting his belly full of cold and snow and wind chills as low as -30 f. He will be here till the first of April, 3 months. He wants to return, bring his 3 year old son, and attend Wayne State College. We Google Earth Jeremie, Haiti but he couldn't pick out his house. He was confused. I can see my house and my car in the driveway with Google Earth.

Lord willing, I will keep following your blog Bud and Jane. Our prayers and heart is with you. It is exciting what God is doing in Haiti. God bless!
