Various Things

I have a few moments for another quick visit to my blog site.

Jeri's here in Nigeria -- happy days for sure! She's really loving Nigeria. Shopping, bargaining, being shouted at -- "my friend, buy from me; aunty, come here; oghibo, oghibo," -- it's all part of the experience.










Jim and I had some good times in Lagos a couple of days before Jeri arrived -- a real movie theatre with almost theatre-like popcorn, a mall -- a real one!! With Jeri we visited a real TexMex restaurant and she had the best-ever quesadillas of her whole life!! I'll post some photos here, if I can, and I'll add some more later. Most shots are from a great beach spot that's owned by a couple of guys Jim works with. News that the white folks had arrived traveled faster than email and for the whole day we had vendors at the fence between the "house" and water.











I'm starting to see some major progress with some of the situations on camp. God is constantly renewing my strength and straightening out my attitude!

Jeri and I will be visiting Abuja soon -- Jim's there now for meetings. And then we'll visit a village, but not Prince's village. Such a bummer -- security would not approve a trip there due to some local skirmishes that probably are no threat but also are not worth the risk. We probably can't even go there for his wedding -- that's a huge disappointment for all of us.

Well, off to enjoy the sunshine and rain -- both occur regularly these days!
