To Bristol

The last time I visited Emmanuel in Bristol, I had a great tour guide. Tomorrow we will say Goodbye to him. Looking forward to seeing friends and making new ones but not to the occasion. Prayers for safe travels for all who join me on this sad voyage.

Outside the box

I worry about Hildy

Ours are about the same size but they don't come to say Hello like Hildy did.

I feed hawks too

A sabbatical reminder - give PLEASE

Padre Mickey and his wife, the lovely Mona, are Episcopal Church missionaries in Panama. They are taking a well-earned sabbatical beginning in a couple of weeks and traveling north to visit family and friends in their home diocese. In case you aren't aware, you need to know that missionaries are paid subsistence wages which cover the necessities but provide little for anything else. Our friends in the blogosphere are raising money to help them pay for their travels. If you have received your tax refund and/or have a few extra shekels, please help us provide the funds they need.
