Christmas Day

Derik, Brenna, NJ and Rama got in late Dec 22 and have been pretty much rained (but by no means reigned in) in since then. Many presents later they are happily watching a movie, Derik is off surfing, Brenna catching a yoga class and I'm practicing using my cool keyboard with iPod.
Lovely carol singing at Inner Light last night followed by the discovery of gifts under the tree when we returned. Rev D spoke about Agapea love and remarked that it was a good thing Jesus didn't say to "like" everyone. We'll join with others at ILM for early dinner prepared by the Men's Mnistry and top it off by joining Dave and Kaylee for a walk.
Blessings to all who read this, and know that you are loved

Still in the planning stages.  Mary and I have a wonderful itinerary for Viet Nam and are currently working on a beach rest spot in Thailand before our three weeks in Myanmar.  More to come, but at least I've begun!

While in Riverside we visited taco tip Mexican Restaurant whimsically decorated with sculptures repurposing "trash" from restaurant
