Summer fun (4)

Our birthdays came and went. Although we are now almost old, yet we still have lots of fun enjoying life, and this summer. For Corrie’s birthday our kids surprised us with a great motor cycle ride and dinner at a close friend’s house.









The summer has been absolutely great; we had little rain and many warm sunny days. Not too much heat and humidity, just great. We have gone on many trail rides on our bicycles and enjoyed seeing the local wild life. Cotton tail rabbits galore, and the ubiquitous ground squirrels of course, but we have also feasted our eyes on deer.






One morning we saw an adult doe with five fawn. They still had their spots. The were not afraid of us at all. Three crossed the trail ahead of us but two decided to give us a closer look. The reason I don’t have a picture is that I did not want to disturb this beautiful moment.

I am still “practicing” for my motor cycle licence, but plan to stop practicing in the near future - should be able to pass the test. Summer is winding down and we look forward to the planned mission trips coming up at the end of September.
