How a culture values time, people, the environment, and any number of other things can be seen in how their buses and trains work. And so, it is with that in mind that I want to present the public transportation system of. To you as a microcosm of Paraguayan society. Paraguayans need little excuse to party, and their buses are examples of that: every bit of s...

Adventures in Bradford and other short stories. Friday, May 29, 2009. Well, it's actually not rainy OR windy today! So I’m told (by my mother) that I need to update more, so here goes. Last weekend I was in a wedding, so I made an unexpected visit back to Oregon to be a groomsman, groomswoman, groomsmaid…I’m still figuring out what word fits best. But it was a lovely trip; I was able to surprise a few people, see my new niece and nephews and be in a lovely wedding. Written with love by. Life on a vista.

The summer a few weeks ago. Churches are busy preparing Christmas programs that in many ways, I anticipate being like they are in Winnipeg – drama, music, lots of involvement by the children and young adults. For this program, I’m accompanying both an ad hoc choir that will be singing two songs (one of them is. The herald angels sing.

I should mention that I work with 5-6 year olds, and they are the unruly class…). The weekend was full of eating delicious food, walking, Bible study, and games. How can it be that there are only 9 weeks left here? Written with love by.
