This morning I printed up the labels for the newsletter.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Worked on the next set of 20 churches on the Research List. I believe that makes 740 so far. That’s a lot of Baptist Churches.
\n\"\"
\nI put all the packets together.
\n\"\"
\n\"\"
\nI liked the eye stamp.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Our prayer is that many of these will come to work with us. One thing’s for sure: they won’t come if they don’t know who we are!<\/p>\n

Ashley brought Penelope over this morning. She’s always so much fun!<\/p>\n

Went to eat with Kathy and Jesse and P. Penelope liked playing. We like that it’s safe for her, although not really her size. We ate at Chic-Fil-A. I was impressed that they provide their employees with sun tan lotion.
\n\"\"
\nShe loved her big cup.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Penelope and I went on walkabout. She had a fall and skinned her nose. She was so sad. She got over it very quickly.
\n\"\"
\n\"\"
\nShe didn’t want to stay in the stroller very long. She wants to walk, or me to carry her. Carrying her is becoming less of an option because my shoulder starts to bother me. Hard to stop doing something when you love them so much.<\/p>\n

Lots of pollen in the air. Rain really helps clean it up.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Went to Azalea to meet up with Ashley to work with the kids.
\n\"\"

\n Hard to believe what happened, but it’s true! On the way to the mission, I was near the church when I smelled this burning odor. The pick up in front of me swerved to the right and stopped at the curve. Suddenly, I see movement out of the corner of my left eye. There is a TIRE ROLLING down the road all on it’s own!
\n\"\"
\nApparently, the whole wheel just broke off. Crazy talk. I was in a car in Kenya one time when that happened.<\/p>\n

We got the new prayer cards in today. They look really good.<\/p>\n

We stopped at Taco Veloz on the way home.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

I also went by ATT to check the iPhone7Plus. I’m on the NEXT plan, which basically means I turn my old phone in and the new model every year. Even though I’m getting a much better phone, my bill only goes up about $3\/month. Worth it.<\/p>\n

It’s kind of a big deal to me, because with this new phone, I am moving towards only shooting with my phone. Video and stills as well. I’ve been using Canon cameras for 15 years. Kind of weird to think about not getting a new one. I usually wear them out about every two years or so. <\/p>\n

I also got a gimbal for the new phone. It’s like having a steadycam for your video camera. This iPhone7 actually shoots 4K video. The Plus edition actually has TWO main cameras, one dedicated for telephoto shots. Pretty incredible really.
\n\"\"
\nIsrael was the first time that I actually shot extensively with my phone. I then followed up and shot with my Canon Elph as well. I thought that both looked great. <\/p>\n

If all goes well, I’ll get the new phone in a couple of days. I’ve already ordered the screen protector, new case and the holster. Still waiting for the holster to arrive.<\/p>\n

Admin duties now.<\/p>\n

New bloom coming on this aloe. Never seen what it looks like before.
\n\"\"
\nI bet the hummingbirds would like it.
