    There is a World Music Festival today and tomorrow on the lawn at our local university. I am going tomorrow because guess who is playing on the open air stage...the FISH TANK ENSEMBLE! I first heard about them through your MySpace page here.
    Can't wait to see that guy jammin' on the shamisen!

    Many thanks for the birthday wishes, Yanna! And I will definitely try the cheese--to think that I've lived twice in Michigan before without actually becoming a resident! ;-)

    Hello, friend!
    All my Orthodox pals are getting ready to fast to prepare for the Dormition of Mary. I once filled in for an Orthodox radio show about the Dormition. I did a LOT of research and found it fascinating. The whole description of the Dormition was amazing and very comforting to read on the air.
    Blessings to you!

    Have a nice 4th of July. Wish you could come and join us for our barbeque. We have invited our two Japanese student friends, Motoko and Azumi.
    They are looking forward to having an All-American hot dog meal!

    Green pastures are before me
    Which yet I have not seen,
    Bright skies will soon be o'er me
    Where the dark clouds have been.

    My hope I cannot measure,
    My path to life is free,
    My Savior has my treasure,
    And He will walk with me.


    Happy Birthday, Yanna !
