holiday appeal

Nevada Desert Experience is the interfaith peace org that Ming and I help run here in Las Vegas.  Here’s the letter our dear friend Mark wrote as a holiday appeal. http://nevadadesertexperience.cmail2.com/t/ViewEmail/j/0AAECD65A9E8E3FF/C54CA7461555ADE32540EF23F30FEDED

tea

Good morning.  Yesterday we went to Tecopa hot springs and soaked.  It was fun.  And China Ranch Date Farm for dates and a picnic and a walk. Now it’s morning and dark.  The day is full of possibility.  First, breakfast.

house mystery

Gmorning.  Today our friend arrives to be a houseguest for several days.  I should clean up a little.  I ate a bagel.

funny stuff

Some funny stuff happened today, but I don’t know what it was.  Ming and I went out and had tons of fun, and then we came home and I took a nap.  I was too tired to take off my clothes and get into bed, so I just wrapped myself up in the outer blanket… Read More »
