Napa, no wine before its time

Here we are once again in Napa as we slowly digress towards the Sacramento Airport. Kathy and Ted aren't home as usual. We let ourselves in because they have told me where to find the key. After a day or so they call me and tell me they are heading home from Oklahoma and would arrive in about three days. I couldn't believe it, they left the refrigerator absolutely empty. Some hosts. Just kidding, Kathy was afraid the food may get spoiled so she protected us from poisoning ourselves. But Napa is known for fine food and drink so we knew we would just have to go out to dinner and then go to a grocery store to replenish their larder. And Ted only left one beer in the frig. But Ted makes up for it in other ways as his ministry is to cart all our belongings and others to the many churches & missionaries throughout Mexico in his truck and trailer and won't even take gas money for his efforts. What a couple of saints they are. Kathy is a massage therapist and obviously gave both Faye and I hands on treatment to our ailing bodies. See I told you God blesses His workers.

Well after a few days it was time to sort all the stuff for Ted to take and for us to prepare for our journey home. So I got Ted up a 4 am for our trip to Sacramento airport. What a saint. On the way their Ted said I should figure out what kind of a used car I need to replace ours in PV. As you folks know our old 1999 Ford Explorer is starting to fade away as the cobblestone streets take their toll. We have received some seed money on our travels and now its time (if the Lord says so) to start looking for a car. Unfortunately, used cars are expensive in Mexico and it is required that we have a Mexican plated car due to our visa. So we are trying to find the best way to get a newer car and Ted is willing to help us through some of his contacts in the states. So we will see and will keep you all posted on our efforts.
