Well, time for a quick update, and hopefully a few pictures!
We were taken to see a Rodeo last Friday evening. It was an 80 or so mile drive, which is just down the road for people here (huge state and cheap fuel, even though Texans think it's expensive). The show was one of those things that was great to see once, but I don't think people go every week, unless they're really into horses. Quite impresive cowboy/girl skills though (and checkout the Texan sized truck Elliot is standing by!).
The course is going really well, though there dosn't seem time to get everyhing done! Patricia led worship yesterday with 3 other ladies which went really well. Patricia also has started to run a beginners Spanish class for those who are going to the Dominican Republic in a few weeks; it is very popular and great fun! I have been designing, making and testing a low tech water treatment system that can be made with materials fairly readily available in developing countries. On Friday we get to drink the finished product, which is fun considering the stuff that goes in come from the sewage plant!!!! We do test it first to ensure that it's not going to give us anything nasty though!
Well, time to grab some breakfast before class starts at 08:15; and thanks to everyone for your support in so many ways.
