no i'm not dead

just a quick word to tell you that i am alive and kicking. i'm located in the southwest of France at Maison Puyo east of Bayonne and north of the L'Adour river by about 10 minutes in a car.

i'm taking care of a few children while the parents are 'getting away' to celebrate their 20 years of marriage. this weekend a few extra gals are over hanging out to learn about God together. Tomorrow i will share about who we are in Christ in a short devotional.

I took Tabitha (# 2 of 7 children) to the dentist in Biarritz. We took the 9 passenger van, parked downtown and hung out on the beach to eat our sandwiches. Imagine- 2 young gals in a huge van downtown 'tourismville' who get lost trying to get out of town.

In the past 6 days, I have driven 4 different vehicles: the camionette/van, a small car with no brakes (repaired the day after), a tiny car that i bombed around in the pays basque to take the boys to get their shots, and a Mercedes which we cruised up to Seignosse (near Hossegor) in.

Hope your vacation is going well.
