A friend Jade met at our Knoxville convention came yesterday afternoon for a visit on his way back to Penn- sylvania. We invited him to spend the night. Later, Venese, a friend of Jade's came over to spend the night with Jade. Venese is an exchange student from S. Vietnam. We all left for dinner at a local Chinese Buffet restaurant. (The picture above shows Jade with her friend, Venese.)
While on the way to go eat Chinese, a friend of ours from Georgia called and told us their daughter and husband were traveling through our area and had car trouble in Bristol. They were having transmission problems, perhaps caused in part from the enclosed utility trailer they were pulling. After our Chinese meal, I went to meet up with them at exit 7 in Virginia. We hooked the trailer to my Sequoia, and they followed me home in their vehicle. So tonight we have a house full. And everyone is having fun. (This picture shows Emanuel, Esme, Asher, Jade and Venese playing games.) Hey, I see Beverly in the background. Beverly baked cookies and we all had a great time. Reminds me of an old Mexico saying, "Me casa es su casa."I am thankful for our friends.
