Les' Interview/Sunday Sailing

A couple of Sunday's ago, Les was "interviewed" in our church.  He had been asked several months ago and it finally worked out.  He is using his Dynavox to speak.

We wish this video showed the standing ovation Les received at the end - we LOVE our church family.  Thanks to our family and friends who came to support Les that morning.

That same day we went sailing.  We left home and it was bright and sunny so we wore shorts and tank tops.   But - the bay was socked in by fog!  We first ate our lunch in the galley and finally headed out.  Our dear friends Bruce and Jermaine were our skippers and she provided our delicious lunch. (Jermaine and I work for the same sailing business) We didn't get to sail as much as we would have liked that day, but at least we got a taste of sailing.  Les has wanted to do this for awhile.  Our kids came along; our power boating/wakeboarding boys were very patient with this slow pace of sailing.

When we went to Europe a few years ago, we spent a lot of time with these two.  We had never met Bruce before, and what a blessing that Les and Bruce hit it off!  They were two peas in a pod - spent a lot of time looking for "wee fee".  Bruce and Jermaine made that trip so much fun.  We don't see them a lot but when we do, we laugh.  And then we pray.  We were scheduled to head to Europe with them again this week but realized awhile back we had to cancel.  I'm sure they won't have any fun at all.

As Les contemplates this larynx surgery (see prior post), please pray that he makes the right decision and that he is at peace with that decision.
