Mishawaka, IN

                                        Look what we found on the Mishawaka River Walk!
           We were just walking around about a mile from where we were staying, and just                                                   happened on a "Splash Pad."

 We thought it was closed for the season, then I just ran my hand across that black knob, and all the water spouts came to life! 

 Josh was the first to plunge in, but all 3 kids were drenched by the end. 

You'd have to zoom to know that's us, doing one of those run-in shots.

A glimpse into the mission house tells us that these people really care about taking good care of missionaries.  Even a glimpse into their fridge would tell you.  This house has 3 bedrooms, all the necessities of life, and mulitiple perks.

This is a fish ladder--never seen one before but it's cool!  It allows the fish up the river by-passing the dam. 

Very first link!

See that beautiful link up there?  Click on it, and you'll get treated to my Sister's friend's  (and mine, to a lesser degree) blog.  Evangel just figured out how to do that!  Be impressed, be bery impressed.

Now that link is worth going to.  Melanie posted pictures of dress-up occasions during her life.  My sister is in 2 of them, but my favorite is where Melanie and her husband Mike are dressed up like pillars, and their little daughter as Samson.  Hilarious! 

So this blog has just arrived at a new level of technology hitherto unimagined.  Thank the Lord for smarty kids.
