We woke up this morning to the sound of birds singing. “So what?” you may be wondering. In the whole time we’ve been here, we’ve never heard birds particularly sing the sun up. Continue reading

Blest be the tie that binds
Mark and I attended Saratoga Federated Church this morning. The final hymn was Blest Be the Tie That Binds and the final verse especially spoke to me:
When we asunder part, It gives us inward pain; But we shall still be joined in heart, And hope to meet again. Continue reading
Another goodbye
Tonight was the monthly Menno gathering at the Graber’s house just down the road from us. There was a guest speaker from First Mennonite who has a project called ALICE Arts. Continue reading
Our “work” this week

However, we’ve had a sort of breakthrough this week. Tuesday evening we participated in a webinar by Workamper News on RV maintenance. We submitted a question when we registered for the webinar and the speaker, Terry Cooper, answered it. Continue reading
