Good evening

So life stays busy, and wonderful grandchildren certainly keep things interesting and amazing.
Tomorrow evening I head to San Jose, meet my family there and we have dinner and then see the Lion King, a live play in downtown San Jose.  It will be magic and we are sitting in the orchestra seating.  This was Jason and Jo's idea and I think it is incredible.  A nice break from the routine of seeing properties, meeting wonderful people and then doing the paperwork that is required. 

Tonight Jessy came to assist with getting the office manager system up top date so I can get ready for the tax man.  yes it is important to know what I actually took in last year in income and without her help I would not know.  She is an amazing woman and is very bright, just sits down and makes things happen. 

Steve has been helping write up appraisals lately and he is so excellent, young people today are amazing in what they can do and how fast they do it.  This Saturday afternoon will be Keanna's final performance of School House Rock, a really good play that she has done 9 performances in.  Hundreds of people from the community have enjoyed these plays and Keanna is learning valuable lessons about performing day after day.  Kallie justs get in the car and the seat belt on and she is singing her little songs, what a joy to just feel their energy and their intelligence.  Amazing really.

So I'm happy, tired and ready for rest tonight but so very thankful to God for His ongoing help and leading.  Ellen is getting ready to make another attempt at getting a visitor visa, not easy to come by in Ghana where many people want to visit the US but many of those visiting want to slip unnoticed into the underworld and disappear.  So they are very careful in giving out these visas.  We just pray that God will guide.

Love to all

Tim
