A word to the faithful...

There went another week! As I mentioned last time, we had some ship traffic coming through Madeira that required my attention for several days, and what time was left over didn't allow me to work on the blog. I have pictures to sort through, besides finishing the report of our trip to Ukraine, but enough "urgent!" translation work has been coming in to keep me away from that project.

We got news that Rick and his family returned home safely. They were in the air over Toronto at the very time the Air France flight crashed! This week, we found out that Joy was stopped at a traffic intersection, and a semi cut his turn through the intersection too short and ran over the front of her car with the rear wheel of the trailer. Fortunately she was not injured (she is doing some check-ups and chiropractic exams to make sure there was no whiplash damage to her neck), and we can only thank God for His protection.

Thanks again for stopping by the blog. I have some ideas about other features I would like to add, but some of them require experimenting with the html code.
