It has been a good week. Beautiful weather -- a little rain, but still beautiful at the Oregon coast. I was struck the other day by the though (not a new one!) that is never "just rains" on the coast. It seems it is always accompanied by wind so the weather is either "nice" or "stormy." And it can change in an instant. I'm beginning to like it (that's dangerous!!!).
Illness has struck so our attendance was down. However we had a visitor yesterday who talked as if she will return. The "survey" forms, maps, popcorn, and instructions were ready for people to take yesterday. They will use these to find out people's needs and interests. The popcorn? Packages of microwave popcorn with a sticker that says, "Pop on over. Agate Beach Community Church" -- and the address. All the surveyors got a sample and were asked to buy their own popcorn and put the stickers we supplied on them. We will see how it goes.
Sisters Beth and Doris are coming today and planning to stay about 3 days. However, Joyce and I have to go to Salem tomorrow. Joyce will do laundry at Ginger's and I have a meeting at the Conference office. Beth and Doris know that and will just hang out until we get back.
This morning I hung up a bird feeder so Joyce can watch the birds. Seems like we are settling in, doesn't it? Well, gotta go. Am meeting a guy at the church to work on the projector system -- see if we can make it function a little better.

Hello from Yuma,
Well, sounds like all is going well with both of you. Have fun with your sisters. We are having 75 to 80 degree days. On Sat. we will be taking a tour of Mexicali, Mexico. We don't have to do the driving that will be fun for a change. Just load the bus and sit back. We will be heading home March 12 if all goes well with the weather.
Roy and Twyla
