Friday was a holiday for the king’s birthday, so Larry was working from home going over the drawings for the antenna upgrade. He is doing the same today, Saturday. Pray for wisdom as he gives advice and makes plans for this big upgrade.

A note of interest is that TWR cut back on one of the shortwave broadcasts and recently received a letter from a missionary saying how much they missed the programs, especially ‘ Through The Bible’ and Chuck Swindoll.  They mentioned how much they have appreciated the encouragement from TWR as they minister and serve.

Friday morning, the Pfeiffer boys, David (5) and Lucus (4) came over to play. Their parents are preparing to leave for Germany for furlough.  They will be leaving on Saturday.  After they have left, we may be moving into their house.  That is not decided for sure as of now.  I will still be taking care of the chickens and fish at at the Kimbers.

Avocados

We played outside for awhile and played inside.  They each made a crown that I had picked up on clearance at JoAnn’s and brought along for them to make.  Also, they played with construction paper, coloring and cutting.  We had a good time.

We had a hard wind and dark clouds on Friday and we were without power for awhile.  It wasn’t long and the power was back on for which we were grateful.  We had dark clouds, but it seemed the rain went around us.  Larry said that there was quite a downpour at the transmitter site.

While we were outside, we found some avocados that had been blown out of the top of the tree.  Hopefully, they will ripen and we can enjoy them. They are quite big and, we know from past experience, tasty.  We also found some granadilla that were ripe and ready to eat.  I picked up quite a few and we have been enjoying granadilla juice.

The chickens have been providing us with 1-3 eggs a day, which we are enjoying.  After the snake episode, they took a break and the hens that usually have t-2 eggs had none.  They wouldn’t go back into their cage all day after the snake visited.  They do go back in now, but don’t stay.  They

roost on top of the cage and jump the fence during the day.  I finally decided to just leave the gate open so they could come and go and just shut it at night.  They keep me entertained.  When at home in Indiana, I have a little dog that follows me all over, here I have chickens that follow me when I am outside!
