Things have settled into a bit of a routine here: Sunday morning church, afternoon company for dinner, evening bible study with a small group in Page, ND. -- Wednesday afternoon Seniors club in Hannaford and small group bible study in Cooperstown. -- Thursday evening bowling with the Gutter Busters. -- Friday afternoon: bible study with the family. Whew - seems like a lot of bible study. Actually these events are as much about socializing as they are serious bible study.
We had a cold snap last week. Jack Frost painted the trees beautifully as you can see. Night temperatures dropped to 16 below zero with wind chill in 40s below. During the day it warmed up to 2 below. The saying here is: "there is no bad weather, only inadeqaute clothing". The temperatures have come back up to the low thirties - break out the shorts and flip-flops.
The water tower piture was taken a few weeks ago after a light snow. It is looking west on bridge avenue toward our new fertilizer plant.
Sunday we sang in church. Erleen played her auto harp and I played my guitar. It was the first time we have ever done that. Saturday evening we got a call asking us to teach the "kids lesson" in the morning service as well as singing. This we did with God's help.
Last week we celebrated our 45th wedding anniversary. We spent a night in a nice motel in Fargo. We went to the the movie "Hugo" which we enjoyed. It is about an orphan who lives in a train depot in Paris. It brought back memories of many hours spent in the enormous Union Station in Kansas City as a child. My grandfather worked there.
