Oregon is fantastic--but a little cooler (temperature) than I'm used to in Michigan. Cheryl and I are staying with Eric & Shelley Stuewe, and they have been fantastic hosts. We spent the weekend in Lincoln City, on the pacific coast. We rented a cottage from a Steuwe relative--the same house where Nate & Lissa will stay on their honeymoon. It was a great no-pressure time of getting to know each other. On Sunday, the "kids" got Eric and I each a two string kite--it was a blast flying a kite on the beach with the waves crashing beside us. It is so great to know how similar our two families are, and the values we have tried to instill in our children. What a blessing from God! And Lissa is an answer to our prayers for Nathan.
