In September, the guys at the local EAA chapter that Anders has been a part of through him a graduation party. It was a great time and so great to hear the amazing things these old duffers said about Anders. In January, Anders will head to Eugene to start his 2 year trade school to become a certified aviation mechanic. He will commute from home, which makes me happy because that means I still have someone to do Sarah's endless list of house projects.
Fall time we managed to keep the tradition alive of going to a local pumpkin patch. As you all know, 3 weeks ago, I came down with COVID which then spread to the rest of the family. Sarah and I both had to go to the ER, and it has been almost 3 weeks and we are starting to feel better. It has been a very difficult time for us all, but by the mercy of God it looks like we are improving. We were so grteful for so many people who reached out with prayer, meals, and general support and encourgement during our time with COVID. Needless to say, we are ready to "see the world" again after being so careful the past year and a half.
A week before I came down with COVID, we purchased our new vehicle. We were blown away at the provision the Lord brought in from so many of you, and we would never in a million years think we would be able to purchase a new vehicle. As crazy as it seems, used cars cost more than new ones here in Oregon rite now, and we were able to take advantage of that. Thank you all so much who contributed to this huge need after the accident that totalled our van. Man, just writing this makes me realize how crazy an end to our summer has been!
