Well, I am home now. Here are a couple of last pictures just before I left. Finley was busy killing flies in the kitchen.
There is a “fly season” and we got to experience the beginning of it! Fly season? I thought it was from the cows on the other side of the fence, but Colette assured me in her very mature 9 year old voice “Oh it gets worse, February is the worst month of all.” She is a doll, as is her sister, Salona.
I took a quick family pic of the Treadways, as I was leaving. They are the team leaders for Pioneer Missions in Arequipa. They have lived in Peru for 12 years. It was a delight to get to know them.
My flight home was 19 hours long, with three flights. All went well and customs was a breeze. I missed the worse of the snow in Seattle by one day. I was so grateful, as I heard some crazy stories in Miami airport. It took some people 24 hours to take a non stop flight from Seattle to Miami. One of the problems is that the de-icing truck slid into the side of their airplane!
I texted Mike when I landed and he texted back that he was at carousal 14 picking up his baggage. (He thinks he is soooo funny!) But I tell you, the best part of coming home was getting enveloped in his arms. I didn’t let him go for quite some time.
Yesterday was sleep, nap, sleep, but today I am feeling great. Thankful for this trip. It was great to be in and see a tiny speck of South America and to meet some wonderful people. I had a great time with Patti - lots of shared memories and laughter. I wish Eric and Rachael well and pray that God would help them to be a blessing to the people they meet and work with.
