Everyone will look forward to the care package. Bethany needs leather gloves. She is working hard. She uses my gloves which is fine, but it would be good if she had her own. If there is room for a few more Emergency Vit C packets that would be great. We still have some, but I want the kids to have them for the vitamins. Thanks for thinking of us!
Michelle, we appreciate the comments and the prayers. Christina wants to say hi to Shiana. She wants her to know she misses her. Don't send anything in the mail, we prob. won't get it.
Delores, If you lift the barn water handle just a bit it should stop leaking. We push it all the way down and then lift it until it stops. Sorry we didn't tell you before. I appreciate what you are doing for us and our cats and plants. It's hard to imagine it's fall there when we are living in summer here.
Love to ALL OUR FRIENDS! Keep praying for us. This is a challenge like no other.... Blessings, angela

Hi Angela, family and friends....
Wondering what else you might like sent over your way in terms of foods.....candy ect.?
Glad that the kids are starting to feel better, it can't be any sort of fun when they are away from home and feeling yuck.
We are so impressed by all the hard work the kids are doing! Wow!!
Hello's to all!
Love, Anna and Matt

Hello everyone, Picked over one bin Cameos. Have 4 bins at Blue Star for cider. Mowing all done. Done fertilizing North Rd Will be finished with Moubrays tomorrow. Nice weather but will change on Friday. Dogs all doing fine. Church is awful empty and too quiet. Praying for you all several times each day. Keep up the good work. Jon, they packed just under half Cashmeres Anjous. 98.3% Home Bartletts 91% I think. Fall colors are at their peak. Miss every one of you. Wish I was there. Give every one and each other big hugs from me. God bless you all.
Love, Dad, Grandpa, Eldon

For those who know Dr. Farrar, the fracture was T5 (not C5) and transected the spine, so he will be a complete paraplegic. But they are expecting full function in his arms. He had a C2 fracture that is stable and they are expecting won't cause any neurologic issues. He was still in ICU when Nick and I talked with Dave Hyde on Monday. They are keeping him on a ventilator due to multiple rib fractures, under some sedation.
If you are checking email, I forwarded the news release regarding Jere Patzer. From what Myron said, it apparently was a viral infection that just took off with his compromised immune system.
You are missed! Church is very empty, and quiet without all the musicians. I have been updating sermons if you have opportunity to listen that long online.

After growing and selling tomatoes this summer I have been able to buy my camera with Daddy this last Sunday. I really like it. Thank you for the balloons, pumpkins, herbs and peas you have stared with us. I have missed all of you at church. One Sabbath there were only 4 of us kids, and last week there were 7 of us at church. I enjoy your stories about the food and stuff. Bye!
Hello

Angela, Everything is ok at your house, even the water! The first time I was over there I saw the faucet and thought it wasn't completely turned off...when it wouldn't stay off I tied it shut, well so I thought. That didn't work so I tried to tie it tighter, that still didn't work. Then I believe God reminded me that I had seen the handle partly up...well that worked. When I got your last message and when I checked yesterday the faucet was still off and hadn't dripped at all. :-) I've picked 6 tomatoes now from your garden, they aren't completely red but have a bit of red coming. Our coldest night now is 29 degrees and a bit of misting rain today. Yesterday was the first time we saw Taggle and Raggle both on the same day. They must really be missing you. The cats let us pet them for 30+ minutes before they became really interested in hunting or exploring.
Happy Sabbath to all of you. We will miss you all again tomorrow. There is a bit of planning on your end and our end of what Dale and Tom can bring with them. It looks like we won't be able to send all the care packages we'd like to but amazingly we can communicate and send messages. Nick has printed off star maps and sending them with both men. It looks like you should be able to recognize Orion and Cassiopeia the "W" toward the north. Probably about the time you come home we all will be able to see the same constellations here.
Cindy, I'm glad you were able to call Tom before he leaves. It really meant a lot to him to know that Ellie was missing him. Take care, I'm looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks.
Kristin and Teresa, I've been thinking of you. Sounds like a much looked forward to weekend is coming. I know you'll enjoy the warm showers and good cooking. We continue to pray for you.
Have a HAPPY SABBATH! Delores

Hi Bethany,
I just wanted to say hi to you. I have been reading all the blogs and it looks like you are working hard and also having a good time. I am sure the Lord is blessing you and all the others that are with you.
Holly and the birds are all ok. Grandma said she will also send you a blog.
Love you very much.
Grandpa Wallace

It has been suggested to send Grapefruit Seed Extract. I understand that we are limited on space. Is this items wanted to help stop the throwing up? I'll check frequently for the next three hours.
