Ireland(s), here we come!
Starting the 1st of July, 2010, the Scotland and Ireland Missions will combine. We will now be called the Scotland Ireland Mission. We will cover both Ireland, Northern Ireland, and Scotland.

Cort, Teri and kids are living in Texas while Cort does his Masters work at Texas A&M. They love it there. Their next posting is North Carolina.
Grandma turns 91!
Here we are last January on Grandma's 90th birthday. She just turned 91! It was a long winter for her with a bad case of the shingles but she is doing better and it is great to see her up and going again!
Agua!
This is the only drinking fountain that I have seen in Scotland. They just don't have them, not even in the Church buildings. This one was at a park near Cullean Castle.
Cullean Castle Itself
Denise and Emalyne Mellen and I went to visit this castle while they were here in December. It is along the coast, south of Ayr.

One of the Four Abbeys of the Borders Lands
While Denise and Emalyne were here we drove south to the Borders country (where Scotland and England join) and there we visited a series of 4 very famous Abbeys.
