I don’t know what we’d do without our helicopter. And I mean that literally. We have no roads to our jungle location. We have no roads to anywhere even CLOSE to our jungle location. Without our helicopter, and the people who maintain it and fly it, I’m not sure we’d...

I’ll be going into town tomorrow to buy some supplies to take into the bush with me. Mostly, I’ll be picking up gardening supplies, I think. I had asked a couple of my Iski friends to look after my garden for me while I was gone, so there would be vegetables waiting...

We will be heading back into our bush location in a week or two, so I’ve been trying to prepare myself mentally for what will be waiting for us when we get there. We’ve been on Home Assignment in the States for a little over 9 months, and our jungle home hasn’t been...

We’re going to see a baptism. It’s going to be a fun one. What a beautiful day! We’re not scared. Uh-oh! A jungle! A big, dark jungle. We can’t go over it. We can’t go under it. Oh no! We’ve got to go through it! Stumble, trip! Stumble, trip! Stumble, trip! We’re...

I finished writing an epic saga the other day. Truly, it is literature at its finest. I am inclined to think that even the most critical of readers will be forced to grudgingly agree that it is destined for greatness. Literary enthusiasts around the world will be...
