Hobo Joe

We have surfaced after a long absence. It is very hard to get onto line here so we can't be regular bloggers. Thanks for being patient. HoBo Joe is referring to our living situation. We live in a small 2 br house with inside bath (that's optional by some standards) in a squatting area. That means that people can build a house on a lot and then after so many years it becomes theirs. We pay rent from one of the pastors who is buying the house and land. Right now we have a one burner kerosene stove, a 5 gallon cooler, and one or two other things. Some running water is available if the water tank has rain water in it. It will be pleasant when it is finished. Terri has worked hard at cleaning it. Some church folks have helped too. I am still working on locating parts for the stove and the water system. Our shipment arrives on Tuesday.

Joel and family leave for Indonesia on Monday. Its especially hard for them since Bethany's dad is experiencing serious health set backs.

Oh me moma, its hot already. Abee gon naw.
