Friends from India

We had the opportunity to have Sunday dinner with our friends, Santhosh and Sophie
George last weekend. We put out a last minute notice to the folks in our Sunday School
class to see if anyone wanted to join us for dinner. We had nearly 40 people! Our plan was to do a picnic lunch but, in true Michigan form, the weather went from very nice before church to rather cold following church so we had to go inside. Anyway, please pray for the Georges as they left for Colorado today and will travel back to India next Monday.

A Spring Storm and Fire

Tuesday evening turned out to be quite eventful in our neighborhood. A gust of wind from a pretty strong storm knocked down a tree in my neighbor (Ben's) yard. It blew the tree onto his garage and then knocked down a power line. The power line actually was cut when it fell. One half of the power line was lying behind our house. The other half landed on another neighbor's garage - and that started a fire. Needless to say it was quite crazy around here for the night. Here's some pictures . . .

Brady and his class spent the day on Friday at Greenfield Village - the "One Room School House" in particular. I got to spend an hour or so with the kids at the end of the day. The kids looked so great with all the "old-fashioned" clothes. Mrs. Miller looked so authentic with her outfit that quite a few Greenfield Village guests kept asking her for directions and instructions - thinking she worked in the village.
