Happy birthday Nick! 25 years young. Unfortunately on his birthday we had to drive 10 hours. We left at 11am to Warrensburg, MO to deliver our bunnies, Maggie and Sam to Kristin. She is a nice girl who responded to my craiglist ad to foster our bunnies. She has ...

Heute ist Erntedankfest und ich bin gerade nicht in Denver. Mein Vater, meine stiefmutter, meine kleine schwester und ich sind nach Omaha Nebraska gefarhen. Das ist einen anderen Bundland hier in Amerika, ungefahr 8 stunden nord-ost von Denver. Wir sind gestern nachmittag angekommen. Wir wollten doch früher in Omaha sein aber meine eltern waren beim schlafen, als ich um 4 uhr morgen bei denen war. Sie haben gesagt, halb fünf werden wir losfarhen ...

... the settlement into 22 wards to facilitate the care of the members, who had significant temporal needs. This division into wards still exists today in the Church organization today. Although the conditions were challenging, diversions such as feasts and celebrations were encouraged. Although these early pioneers lived with the daily specter of disease and death, nonetheless life could be very pleasant, rewarding and meaningful. Church and family meetings were held to raise morale ...

... makings of a superb event. That is truly what took place in Omaha. The Choir was inspired by the beauty of our surroundings, and being able to hear one another extremely well! Plus, this was our third performance of our “tour concert”. After working out the “bugs” and memory lapses through two previous performances of our fully memorized tour concert, the Choir has gained more confidence in our memorization, and can truly put our ...

... in both buildings up in the rafters. We will actually be running the fiber optic cable directly to all of the computers. We are also bringing new cards to put in the computers to accept the fiber optic cables. The more I have learned about this task, the harder I realize we will work but I can't wait! Ryan did not practice as he will be neck deep with ...

In Dallas we again had plenty of time. The plane that was to take us on to Omaha was late arriving in Dallas, but they expedited the boarding process as much as they could and I think most of the time was made up by the time we arrived back in Omaha.

We got off the plane to be greeted by our sons. That was a nice way to come home after a long and really wonderful expedition. We really had no major problems ...

We woke up to 6" of new snow this morning. I went out and started shoveling, thinking about 90 degrees in Rio. Our neighbor did most of the drive with a blower so it did not take too long. We would not have been able to get the car through the berm the snow plow had left at the end of the drive, so I ...

We are to leave tomorrow and it is snowing in Omaha. The forecast
started at 1-2 inches. Now it is up to 5-8, tapering off at noon. Our
flight is scheduled to leave at 3:15 so we may be okay if the morning
flights don't back up and if the flight comes in from Dallas so it can
return to Dallas. This is shaping up to be like the time we went to
Sedona and the morning flights canceled. The other bad part is we have
a tight connection in Miami.

... the basis for true democratic society better. As Americans we take a lot for granted, and I wonder if our democracy might become more delicate (like Ukraine's) sometime in my life. Then, maybe all the practical skills I'm developing through Peace Corps (ie: bucket bathing) might come in handy! I realize most people I know will never be able to understand what it means to be a Peace Corps Volunteer really, and before I finish next year I've got to find ways to ...
