All the way from St. Lucia Island!

May 23rd, 2009

A Family Picture before parting paths.

Picnic in the back yard with Sharon our neighbor.

This is NOT the proper stance!

Starting a healthy competition with the wii.

Who hit whom with a golf ball? Remember?

Deborah loves to walk, which is going to keep Phil literally on his toes.

Deborah is a commited Christian and a real thinker.
She is presently studying for her U.S. citizenship and doing VERY well.

Philip, (Jim's brother) and his new bride come for a visit.

Deborah is from St. Lucia Island and holds a masters in accounting.

Valerie's Recent Creations

This is the Renaissance Outfit that looks very patriotic.

Cleaning the rental property

A baby snake and a few worms--the reason we needed to clean up around the shed on our property in Pennsylvania.

We burned a lot of stuff and the rain took care of the end of the fire.

Taking a much deserved break.

Yeah! The chuck wagon with "the cook" Cheryl. Most welcome break. Thanks Cheryl.

Valerie checking progress in the dumpster

Cleaning the bottles, cans and other stuff.

Tearing the lean-to off the shed.

Sporting a hat he found to protect his head, Jim is glad most of the work is over

Dumpster full!

Dave wondering why they (Dave and Cheryl) ever let in this motley crew.
We were very thankful for a shower, bed and food. Great friends.

Flat tire. :(

Staying at the Hicks' and getting Jonathan

Rev. Steve and Connie Hicks gave us food and shelter as well as great fellowship on our way down to school to bring Jonathan home for the summer. Thanks Steve and Connie. Jonathan received a $100 scholarship. Every little bit helps.
