New Year, 2010
I haven’t written for a while. Things have been quiet. I went to OKC for dinner with friends Nothing fancy, just conpanionship. On New Year’s Day I had friends over for our regular Friday night crowd. About 12 people. We had roast leg of wild boar. What a treat. It was baked on a bed of sauer kraut. Pork and sauer kraut are traditional for New Years for me. We had a great time fellowshipping and playing games. We raised about 20 dollars for the Pakistani school. Don’t say we were gambeling for it.
Things at the office are quiet. I signed some books one day. Brenda, a friend from Friday nights came over and counted out strings one day. I also tried to make some contacts with American Schools in Germany for February.
I am packing for a couple of trips. I am going to Nashville, TN for a spiritual group I am a part of for the weekend. I fly back on Sunday afternoon in OKC and drive to Lawton to pick up my bags. I then drive 25 miles to Walters where I meet up with a Volunteer In Mission team that is going to Mexico. We leave at Midnight on Sunday and drive to the border where we need to go through customs and get insurance for the trip. We will stay the night on the other side of the border and go on from there.
We will be going to San Carlos in Tamaulipas State. It is in the mountains of central Mexico. It is a village of about 1,500 people. We will be on a medical and construction mission. I, of course, will be doing strings whenever possible.
