Messiah Concert
This weekend was the Messiah concert. Thanks to all who came out to Annapolis for it. It was awesome to see everyone. We're singing it again next year too. So, if you didn't make it, there is still another chance.

Aunt Mechis and Uncle Nelson have landed!
Dunlop Hill, November 2 - They arrived yesterday in the afternoon and are staying with the Grandparents. In the evening the family gathered to greet them and share in the sorrow of the passing of Tio Guillermo.
Grandfather was tangibly moved as he requested a momment of prayer for his brother and equally moved to encourage the family to share in the joy of the arrival of Mechis and Nelson.
The couple is fully recovered from their bout with 'Dengue' and fiery as ever!
Mechis told us that Nelson won the prize for most innovative exporter in Honduras for this past year. He exported 'turkey callers'. Keep it up!
Nelson is now in the process of developing for export 'duck callers' in the higher end of the spectrum. We're not talking the plastic items put out by China. His would be natural Rosewood, a beautiful piece of woodwork that would become something passed down from father to son. In the same way that duck hunting is passed down.
Mechis is still the same sweetheart, working hard to make sure everybody is full of enthusiasm for whatever it is that is going on; even something as simple as getting a cup of coffee for grandfather. Last night, she had an entire committee of 5 selecting the mug, complete with expert Aunt Nancy who knew just the one. In the end the mug was not found and the committee returned to the living room to continue with the chatter and the humor of the evening.
This humor was precipitated mostly Grandfather's quick wit and the ample opportunity for double entendres caused by the mixture of English and Spanish and the Honduran twist. Lots of laughter & warmth.
All round a warm glow of affection for each other and echoes of happy times when we were all young and together. A throw back to the time when the young adults were Grandmother, Grandaddy and Tio Guillermo.
