Just a few photos of recent months.  In April we spent some time with Diane's mother as she "vacationed" in New Hampshire.  There we took a drive to the camp location where Diene found Christ as a teenager, a place where her Mom took her every summer.  No wonder Diane has such fondness for camp ministries.  We also got in a great hike and spent one night at the inn where we're honeymooned 35 years ago.

The Sugar Hill Inn - highly recommended

We've spent much time in the North Shore of Massachusetts this year.  Our son Carl is attending college at Gordon - Diane's alma mater.

Family time has been great during this furlough year.  We made it to the zoo with the 4 grandkids.

And then there was the wedding of Samantha Kraines and Brandon Thursby.  What an outpouring of joy, laughter and celebration.  We are so happy for them both.

First kiss! (as Mr. & Mrs.)
