Thanksgiving is over now except for the turkey sandwiches and the rigors of losing all the weight I gained in one meal. When there are so many delicacies, even a sample of each is too much. And I took more than a sample of the turkey and stuffing! Remember that old Bugs Bunny cartoon where [...]

The audio update is early this week. Our new family, the Mittens, have a lead on a vehicle that sounds like just what they need for their ministry here. But it’s located in Tegucigalpa. So, Travis and I are planning to fly there in the morning (Monday) to meet our friend Mario Guevara, who helped [...]

He loudly announced the obvious to all who could hear over the engine noise, “It’s workinnnnggg!!!” Jim Avella and I had a moment a little like that this week. Several months ago, the radio station [...]

Well, I guess we just plain missed a week on the audio update. It was quite a hectic week last week. As I type this we are waiting to hear from Travis & Emily Mitten. We believe they landed a few minutes ago in San Pedro Sula on the mainland. Their flight from the U.S. [...]

Jerry and I have been extremely busy this week just trying to keep up with all that needs to be done at the radio station. There’s a lot more work per person when there are only the two of us here!

We’ve had some big, big days here at HRGS. Friday afternoon, Ken Anderson and I dropped the old FM transmitter tower. It was the end of an era and we’re looking forward to what we hope will be lots of years of service from the new system. Then, on Saturday, a team of three man [...]

Recently, Ken Anderson and I made a trip over to Utila that was nearly all work, but those were also the most fun evenings I’ve ever had over there. When we left Monday morning on the ferry, Kevin Spencer and friends, along with their host Edwin Martinez, were also on the Galaxy. We were in [...]

What a week! It seems like it wanted to revolve around batteries. As you know, we have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of Ken and Karen Anderson. They got here right on time Tuesday with their luggage – always a nice surprise these days. But I was a little late getting there to pick them [...]

As you know, if you know anything about me, I like to make stuff. It’s even more fun when it’s my own invention. And you know I’ve been making a lot of stuff here lately and so has Frederick. But what I don’t like is the tedium of tidying up after a job. That, combined [...]

My last entry was a little gloomy. So, lest you get the impression that it’s always up hill and into the wind for us, let me assure you that that is only true about 90% of the time. Here’s a little story to balance the last one.
Yesterday I was up on Dixon Hill working on [...]
