My Turn

I had a small part in that Kentucky trip---I delivered Linda to the take off place. and picked her up at the end of the week. Linda also gave a great report to our congregation, including pictures of the work.
While she was gone, I spent four days on Pat Leininger's farm pulling weeds and eating great meals. I also went to the Stephenson County Fair -- rode the ferris wheel and the tumble bug. Great fun.
Our event of the summer was the visit of my sister Marybeth and her husband Hubert.
The Morsink family had a reunion in the Blue Ridge Mts of Virginia (Jim, Paul and Marlies and families), before coming to Chicago. It was gracious of them to come for a four day stay with us. Hubert and I went to a Dollar store and bought socks which were marked Size 10 - 13. Ha ha ha, they were far too small for us. So much for Dollar stores.
I made a mistake by saying that there is a serious clash between the West and the Muslim world. MB disagreed by saying that it is not a religious matter, and that it isn't right to lump all these countries as Muslim. Well, I'm happy to be corrected by my very knowledgeable sister. Fortunately we talk via Skype each Wednesday and keep up to date that way. Here are some pictures of Morsinks.
