Hi again Ann, I must admit that almost every day I say "God, what did I do to deserve a life like this". Alison and I were in France for 69 days, just returned a little over a week ago. We flew back from Paris with a stop over in Boston. Our oldest son and his wife blessed us with our first, and only, grandchild. Frances is adorable, of course, lol. About the louder moans, well, we all have the pains and we are no exceptions. When we are back in Camarillo it seems like doctor's visits fill our calendar. We do, though, try to limit how loud our moans are! We still spend 3 months in Mazatlan working at two orphanages although the amount of time has diminished greatly as we aged. The kids, like Frances, are adorable and we are blessed many times over for the time and money spent to help them. How has the weather been in Texas? France was beautiful this year, clear and not cold and rainy like last year. The weather there was actually warmer and drier than in Camarillo, which had a rainy springtime. The renovations we are doing to the home in France is almost complete. It has been 7 years since we bought the "falling down" place, and we have spent most of our summers there working to restore the 300 year old buildfing. Now we have to decide what to do with it. Doing insulation, drywall, making lights and installing them, it is all much harder than it was 7 years ago. It is good that the project is almost complete or our moans would be much louder and more often! Keep healthy, stay in touch. Phil
