Ashley, Penelope and I had fun briefing the team from N. Georgia this morning!

I always include a segment on neurology.

We talked about how to round up the kids at the mission and went on Safari to the Buford Highway Farmers Market.

P didn’t go for the frozen goat head. She was shy.

Love my girls!

Then to the missions!

Ashley painted Penelope’s toes for the first time today. Beauty.

Admin duties now.

This morning Kathy and I enjoyed Westside Baptist Church.

I liked the Submarine set they had for VBS.

I sang as part of an impromptu choir.

The kids were cute.

Pastor Ben spoke on being a good father. Not an easy job, but SO rewarding! Of course I have the best kids in the world, so it’s easy to brag.

Ate lunch with Kathy and Jesse. Never too much J!

I enjoyed watching the mama raccoon. She picks up things mainly by touch. She doesn’t look at the ground much. Plus her back legs are real long sort of like kangaroo back legs.

Restful afternoon. Around 6:30 I met up with Ashley, Miles and Penelope at FBC Doraville. We set up the room for The Show. Takes two people about 1hr. With Miles’ help we were finished in about 45 minutes.

Just got off the phone with my Mom. My Dad fell in the bathroom today and is in the ER right now. His legs just went weak on him. Prayers are appreciated.

I had a fun morning: RECORDING!

I love this episode, because it gets to the root of what people really want, more happiness. Or in my version HappiMORE!

Uploaded to my server.

Link on Facebook.

Did the grocery shopping.

Had a great talk with my Mom in Georgetown. Always good.

Went to lunch at Jason’s Deli with Kathy to celebrate her sister Ruth’s birthday! Great to see some of the Duvall clan again!

Watched the final episode of the series of Downton Abbey. I thought they did a good job of tying up loose ends and ending with everyone being happy. I’m a sucker for happy endings.

I’ve been enjoying watching the short videos from my game trail camera. I think there are at least 3 and possibly 4 different raccoons that visit my feeders. And one young opossum. FUN!

I tried the traditional method of tying my camera to a tree. I liked the viewpoint from ground level better.

Came home to rest and work on admin duties.

Worked on catching up my admin duties this morning. Really tired last night.

Edited the video I shot.

Encoded the file into mp4.

Uploaded to my server.


Sent the final thank you email. Burned the DVD. Got it in the mail.


Cleaned the fish tank and watered my plants.

Always something to recycle.

Ashley dropped the Magnificent Baby off with me this morning. I took her to Always Fresh. She liked the mashed potatoes with gravy the best.

We had fun today. I had her go through the obstacle course.

We also had percussion practice.

She fell asleep on my chest, which is just the best ever. I told Ashley that the only thing better is to really get her laughing.

She’s always such a smiling, happy baby. What a pure delight.

K and I went to Alcove Coffee for Jesse’s first VR showcase.

It’s a beautiful location.

It was well attended and the people were blown away.

Watched the next to last episode of Downton Abbey with K this evening.

Admin duties now.

Ashley, Penelope and I had fun briefing our team on Catholicism in Mexico.

The Golden Egg of Eggcellence!

Our Dedication Day!

Signing the Landing Pad.

On Safari to Plaza Fiesta!

Great team!

My friend Antonio Perez from Hawaii came to visit me!

On to the missions!


My camera had battery problems. Not sure what was going on.

I brought Penelope home with me. Always a great time.

Ash and Miles had some couple time.

Watching the final season of Downton Abbey with K. Only two left!

Early night. Tired. Catching up on Admin duties Friday morning.

Ashley, Penelope and I had fun briefing our team from Florida on Judaism, Christianity and Islam this morning!

Took them to Ashiana for Indian food.

Then to the Shiv Mandir to get an up close look at Hinduism.

Over to Al Madina to check out the Middle East.

To the missions to work with the kids! They’re doing a great job!






Ashley is doing such a great job of coordinating the teams!


Admin duties now.

Ashley, Penelope and I had a great time with our team this morning!

Not a good look on me.

Bubbleation!

I bought a Chinese hat today that has a long, black pony tail. It will be hilarious.

I like our new rug for the stage.

We took them on the Safari to Asian Square.

Lunch at Penang.

Got them on site at the missions. Rained from the beginning. Then REALLY rained for a while.

Eventually, Ash called the leadership to tell them to go on back to the hotel. It became a safety issue.

Admin duties now.

Ashley, Penelope and I had fun briefing our team from Melbourne, FL this morning!

Always a good time.

We took them on safari to the Buford Highway Farmers Market. Ate there. Good food.



Then to the missions!

Ashley and I are always working on how to improve the look of The Show. We’re working on placing some small spot lights. Put our new carpet down. Looks great.

Super hot today.

Hard to get some of the kids out.

Admin duties now.

I enjoyed going to church with Kathy this morning. We went to Brookhaven Christian Church because our good friend Deborah was singing.

It’s good to have a crowd that’s rooting for you. Their group sounded great.

After church we ate at Piccadilly. Good company with interesting conversation.

Came home to check my game camera. Sure enough! My mama raccoon came to visit me about 9:18pm and stayed for about 20 minutes. It’s cool tech!

Getting ready for the new teams tomorrow! Can’t wait to hang out with A&P! What a blessing! I missed hanging out with Penelope this afternoon. Ash offered to let us watch her, but we were already committed.

Admin duties now.

For the height challenged.

Interesting questions at church.

Today I’ve been working on producing 28 packets of Power Prayer for our partners coming to work with us. Copies, cutting, gluing, collating. It’s a way of life and a labor of love.

The first picture I’ve taken with my left hand.

I realized I could copy files on both the usb drives. Sped things up!

Repaired djembe.

Rewired this marvelous LED picture.

Had lunch with Jesse and Kathy. Always good.

I’m working on some alternate lighting systems for our production with the teams. To see the screen well, the front area needs to be dark. But then it’s hard to see Ashley and me. I’ll fill these with water and put a very bright LCD light to illuminate it. I also bought colored gels so they can be different colors.

I have to take off the labels and clean the adhesive. Yucky job.

I got a game trail camera! I’m pretty excited to see what comes to my feeders. Especially at night.

Admin duties now.

I will work on K’s meds today.

That’s murder.
