Well our numbers are growing faster then Joel Osteen’s congregation. We have 52 attendees for the big party in 2006. All of the cabins are now full and we have six all very close to each other. We have heard a lot of great ideas for things to do. Patti and I are working behind the scenes with a staff person from the park to make sure we have all of the reservations for activities that we need. Thanks for everyone sending in your money to reserve your cabin. We continue to update you on progress until we need to start planning the agenda. We will send out a survey soon to see how many are interested horseback riding, professional minor league baseball game and other activities that we might need more planning on. Enjoy your spring.
My brother Joel answers that he’ll be organizing the frisbee golf tourney.

My dad put out an invitation for family members to join him on a trek in New Zealand in November or December … and Joel reminded us that he’ll be hiking Isle Royale in August, and you can join him, too.

Tsunami

A message from my father:
Last month at this very time I was in Phuket, Thailand, enjoying the waterfront restaurants and the internet cafe. Tonight we saw the same cafe on world news. A 30 to 50 foot tsunami wave of death rolled through the entire island because of an Indonesian earthquake. A 600 mile wall of the earth rose up and pushed the water from Thailand to India. The area where I walked was filled with death. People pulled out to the sea. I believe there were many tourists where we were visiting who were washed out to their deaths. I have nothing but memories of the sweet tranquility of the sea yet tonight millions think of it as a death trap. Go figure…I am saddened but it all.
