A Peaceful Retreat


We had a nice relaxing hike this past Saturday. Our friends, the Taits from New Zealand, took us on an afternoon stroll through the hills and rock formations west of town. It was quite fun and relaxing. We have had quite the week with the senior play, water shortage, Lisa preparing for finals, and Michael preparing for his presentation. It was nice getting out in nature. The wilderness here is a lot like the foothills of the Sierra Nevada of California, though there no wild monkeys in California . It was a needed little break.


We are back to the mayhem. Tomorrow Lisa, Emily, and I leave for the city of Ife, a seven hour drive away. I will be attending a national meeting for Ear, Nose, Throat doctors. It will be quite interesting.
There was no active blasting that day at the gravel quarry, so we were OK.
