Kids & Lawns

Bed never looked so good - even at 8:30! Six hours of 65 kids aged 4 to 11 is enough to put us old folk "six-feet under". Erleen and I helped with Vacation Bible School in Cooperstown this week. It was good fun and in some small way advanced God's kingdom.

Yes, that's me in the bathrobe and towel. No, I did not just get out of the shower. I had just called down fire from heaven on Mt. Carmel. All to convince kids that God listens to us.

Thanks to the sale of our little gray Mercury (the car we have kept here for several years) and my old lawn tractor in Humboldt, I am now mowing in splendor on a bright red lawn tractor here in Hannaford. I mowed the lawns today in less than an hour and wasn't even tired afterward.



Erleen's last uncle, Donald Lende, died today. He made peace with his family and with God, then fell "asleep" We will attend the funeral near St. Paul, Minnesota next week.
