A Little Poem

Five hours in LA…what more can I say.
Lord, help me to see the down time as a blessing.

Meanwhile, the McMurdo community holds a memorial service in sympathy for four French comrades who died in a helicopter crash in bad weather last week; including the pilot, a mechanic and two researchers from l'Institut polaire Paul-Emile Victor, in Brest, Brittany, France.  Sometimes it’s good to have a chaplain around.

  2. Wow! You have had some pretty spectacular trips, but THIS BEATS ALL OF THEM! I am sure that the men and women there appreciate you coming to spend time with them.
    We love you and are praying for your good works and safe return.

    Sent this earlier, but I don't think that it posted.
