WEEKEND WRAP-UP
We got about 10" of snow between Friday and Saturday. Some great and very kind friends came over, completely as a surprise, and helped clear out our driveway and my folks' driveway (two doors down) yesterday. Wow. Their goodness and kindness blow me away.

I am still fighting sinus problems ... felt miserable most of today ... but got in a little nap earlier and that helped some.

Evan play a duet with his piano teacher at church this morning. He nailed it. Cheryl did a nice job, too -- heehee. Anyway, Lisa and I are both very proud of Evan. He has a tremendous sense of rhythm and tonality -- he really doesn't realize how truly gifted he is.

Have a busy next few weeks ahead of us. Hoping I get feeling much better soon. Lisa and Evan are still fighting sinus issues too.

Our church is planning to start a weekly Country Rock service that will not be held at our main church. Very exciting stuff, I think. I am not a country music fan and this won't make me one but it sure is exciting just the same. More details later as they become available.

Last evening along with four friends from church we attended a progressive dinner that we bought at a church auction. It was put on by some other church couples. Delicious food and lots of it and the most wonderful desserts you can imagine. These folks have beautiful, well-decorated, comfortable homes.

I received an email from some guy with a Russian name who will charter a flight for me from Munich to Iraq and back through Greece for 79.500 Euros. It is a little cheaper if you do not go through Greece. I sort of wonder why, if the point is to get to Iraq, there is extra value in going through Greece. Perhaps there's less chance of running out of fuel and crashing if you stop in Greece and gas up along the way and back. I don't know. We'll see how the next couple of weeks go. That flight to Iraq could look pretty attractive at some point.

I think that's it for now.
