I told Brian I needed to sit down and write for the blog.  My greatest writing task to date.  What can I possibly say? Every day we wake up in Africa and can hardly fathom, much less express in words, the surreal elation of finally being where we’ve been trying to go for two years.  [...]

Well, this is not going to be all that creative or artistic, but sometimes you just gotta be clear and concise!  That said, I will make it brief as not to bore you!   We have received many a call, e-mail, and personal inquiry as to the timeline we are working under.  Hopefully, in the [...]

One of the things we’d like to do from time to time is keep you posted via “vlogging” (don’t panic, I just learned that word myself):  basically, blogging with video.  I had to learn the process of making the video, putting in a web savvy format, uploading and connecting it to this blog.  So, this [...]

Pack your bags we’re moving again! A few weeks ago when we were in New York I learned that AIM has their own blogging set-up! SO, rather than direct my blogging constituency through a secular organization, let’s pack up and head west…uh, north…uh…a new direction! We’re moving to AIMSites! Please join us there for the [...]
