Can you guess where we're going?

I'll give you a hint. It's in the middle east and I (Grandma) have been there once. Grandpa and I have both visited one of the stops on this trip. Our church sends workers to both of these places. (Have you guessed it yet?) If not, here's another clue: It is two countries situated on either side of the Dead Sea. Now for those who need a little extra help: Here is a map.





Yes, we are going to Israel and Jordan (May 18 to June 5).


Now, here's the deal: Why don't you go with us (at your own cost, of course)? Grandpa was asked to audit the books of the missionaries in Jerusalem and Ammon. We're going to add a tour of Petra and a few other places while we are there. You go and, while Grandpa works, we can go sight-seeing.

Love you all, Grandma for both of us

Step into my Parlor....



This is not the spider talking to the fly (for those too young to know: there is an old poem that begins "Step into My Parlor said the Spider to the Fly" It ends with you-know-who getting eaten.) This is Grandma here with pictures of our trip to California. I loved our motel. You can see it was a Residence Inn and had lots of space, conveniences and food. For 4 days when Grandpa came "home" he'd plop on the bed for a few minutes. He was a little tired after standing on his feet from 7 am to 2 pm. We had a great trip - wish you could have gone along.

Love you all! Grandma for both of us

Happy Easter - sort of!

Those of you who know me best know I don't go in for Easter bunnies and other animated characters that purport to represent the resurrection of Jesus. I feel they steal the true meaning of Easter and cheat the viewer of a richer, fuller life they could have because of His work on calvary.

However, I received this Easter greeting from someone and I think it is funny, so I hope you'll forget the Easter part and enjoy your egg.
