This week we are enjoying a visit from our first North American guests - Weldon, Jenny, and Laurel Martens. They are visiting with another couple from Nebraska who's son is in VS in Northern England. So far we have been able to spend Sunday with them and we took in the Evensong Service at Westminster Abby at 3:00 PM and a ride on the famous London Eye a huge ferris-wheel on the banks of the River Themes. It was a spectacular evening and the views were brilliant! We hope we will be able to take in a musical with them on Wednesday night. They have been touring the city on there own for the last two days. They've seen more in two days than we have in a month!We just finished hosting our first solo conference at the LMC. The presenter was a professor from EMU - Jayne Docherty. Everything went very well. Phyllis cooked up some killer meals and the weather was nice enough for the folks to eat outside on the patio.

Wow, what a fun time you've been having! I can't believe Weldon is traveling so soon after his surgery. Please tell them hello from Harper!
We had a jolly good time! Such a good time that I never noticed I was touring London on one kidney - ha! Seeing the Shirk's, the Queen, and "Wicked" was a treat. Thank you Ed & Phyllis, you are great hosts. - Weldon
