Visit at JAARS center

What a great day. We visited with Ray and Doris Rising. They currently work on radio and transmitters and projects related to the Radio programs that will transmit in Spanish and in Quechua. They know Jake and Dorothy Fehr. When we left Bolivia in 2000, Ellen sold or gave her dog “Wishbone” to the Risings. Doris’s sister is Lorraine Whaley, Dr. Whaley’s wife.

Then we had dinner with Tom and Mary Beekman at the Emmet Social Table in Waxhaw. A unique eating style (like tapas in Spain, where you share the food in family style). Mary introduced Glenn and me together back in 1978.

If it wasn’t for Tom and Mary introducing us together, then …..

We also had lunch on Friday with Jim and Deb Cartwright. Glenn went to Moody Aviation with Jim and then we have visited them in Colombia back when I worked for Delta, we flew down on passes to see them in Bogota.

Did I mention that we have a Ford Mustang as our rental car.Read more
