Musings

Last week, beginning Sunday, started a big week. On Sunday, the 24th, we bid farewell to our dear friends, the Earls..Glenn, Cindy and Kelley. Actually, they are still here, but they are moving south to Vancouver this Thursday...I haven't even cried yet...I think I'm in denial. The only good thing out of this is that our out to dinner budget might get in better control!! Dennis and Diane Teague made a bunch of calls and we had a great turnout Sunday to say goodbye! It was great! Reg and I are now trying to figure out where and what our roles are with church. We will continue to lead worship at Moriah once a month and also in Olympia once a month. We're not sure beyond that...for now we will continue with Sunday evening too. Glenn likened his past experiences to Elijah. I want to read 1 Kings to see it for myself..I think it's too late to get them to change their minds..they will be close to their son Ryan and his family..I understand that with grandchildren..you want to be near them to see all the changes..click here to see the pictures.

The next day Reg and I ventured north to McCaw Hall, or the Opera House as we used to know it. Kathryn graduated from Bastyr University. WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU, KATHRYN!!!! Here are some of the pictures...
