At home again....

Jon has a fire (wood) burning in the fireplace, the cat is sleeping on my lap, TV news is catching us up on what's been going on while we were absent.  WE arrived home yesterday, having been awake for most of 27 hours.  The north pole flight featured dinner as we approached the north pole....Jon called it a date with tight seating!    

The day of rest in Dubai was a lifesaver as we arrived there a bit weary.   Getting thru the Kabul airport

 is always a marathon of being frisked (5x) and baggage inspection (5x) plus standing in line at Passport Control for an interminable time.  I'm always aware of how outnumbered women are at the airport and on the plane......of many nationalities with attending garb. 

We always realize how plush we have it here in the US as we regain the privilege of paved roads, electricity 24/7, safe water,  a variety of foods, and our own comfy bed!   How should we live then, with so much of the world in so much need?  That is the tension we live with.  "To whom much is given....much is required."   Luke 12:48

 Drs. Jon and JErry with some of the residents of the family practice residency program.

We will be home now until April 21 when we fly to Glennallen, Alaska to relieve a vacationing

Nurse Practitioner at the clinic we served last August.  You can 'tune in' again to this blog then.

Happy Spring!!
