The next day Steve and I flew up to Sacramento. We flew up with two of the Sacramento Kings players sitting a couple rows in front of me. I didn't get an opportunity to talk NBA basketball with them. We pretty much dropped off our stuff at my parents' place and immediately made the four hour drive to Susanville to speak at the Southern Baptist Church there. We met my former Emmaus student from 1984-5, Jacob Ngiraiblosch, and the pastor of the church, John Murdock there and had a great evening talking about how we can help the ministry to the Micronesians that are spread out all over the US mainland. The next morning we spoke (actually I spoke, Steve had pretty much lost his voice) at both the Palauan and English services at the church. There was a lot of interest in our distance education program from both groups and four Palauan students told us that they are very interested in attending PIU next Fall. I had not really thought about Micronesians on the US mainland as an audience for our DE classes but having them in there would be great. I do appreciate the good prayer and support that comes from the Susanville Palauans and the Southern Baptist Church there.
After lunch Steve and I took a nice drive through Lassen National Park and made it to Redding in time to spend the evening with Joyce's parents, sister Judy and brother-in-law Wayne. We celebrated her dad's birthday by eating pie a-la-mode and watching football. Thanks to TIVO we watched three games in a just a few hours.

Hey, Dave. I added your blog to my Google Reader so I can follow you. You might also add the Follow button widget. It gives people another way to subscribe, and even puts some of their icons up on your sidebar.
This Facebook thing is great for a social retard like myself. I am not at all good at keeping in touch. These tools let me do so easily and consistently.
How do you do add that?
