FRIDAY, 3/4/11
I received word that Merwyn Gunter was discharged from the rehab facility and is now at home. Martha Patrick was also discharged and is staying with family members. Ted Ezell should be discharged next Tuesday.
I think Herbert Benefield went home from the hospital yesterday. Outside of those folks, I do not have any updates but assume no news is good news. I do not know the status of the CAB renovation but I do know it is in capable hands with Tony Hacker leading the way. He could use help getting the CAB ready for use this Sunday so contact him if you can help.
The Ross “Griswald” Genzink family hit the road this morning as they left Michigan bound for Florida – twelve family members (one year old triplets and a three year old in that number) plus seven adults plus Jeremy – all in the same vehicle! Are you kidding me? It is only a twenty hour drive without any stops.
Tico Vargas now works for Dominos as he made lots and lots of pizzas yesterday. Yes, he took some falls but did move from the bunny slopes to the first lift and did well coming down. No broken legs but a bruise here and there. What about Bob? Great question! You may send those “get well soon” cards to. . . . j/k. Pastor Bob took to it like a “mouse takes to eating cheese” and spent the afternoon noon on the lower slopes. Yes, he took some falls too but nothing major and he does not have far to fall so the bumps and bruises were at a minimum.
Spencer Cole did a great job of teaching Tico & Bob. I appreciate his spirit and expertise. Drew & Spencer skied the late afternoon and evening together and they ski like “idiots” for lack of a better word. Absolutely no fear! They will probably get their lift tickets clipped today!
Soy? Did you have to ask? He spent three hours on the slopes and three hours in the coffee shop. He rode the “magic carpet” a bunch of times and only fell off once. He was so proud of himself! I bought him a ring pop last night for his “good” day! He says that today he is going to ride the “big” lift. Why me Lord?
Lord willing, we will ski today and then fly home in the morning. I hope to see many members of the Friendship family in church this Sunday morning and evening.
I pray that you will have a great Friday with Jesus.
