Clint is gone again

Dear Family,
Clint left this morning to return to St Louis and get his airplane. He will be gone for a 2-4 weeks. He worked hard before he left to make sure that everything was in tip-top shape for me while he is gone.
I have lots of projects to work on while he is gone so I won't be too bored.
I hope to start English classes sometime. I would love to get a library started here but that is going to take some more books and some time.
I am writing some bible stories and getting them translated. I hope to get them printed for the Miskito children.
Maybe also a song book. This of course is going to depend on my power. Guess I will wait and see how it goes.

I think that I will go to town on Friday. I will let you know for sure closer to the day.

Love to all.
Marilyn

home at last

Hello everyone!
We are finally home in Tronquera. Our house is dirty but exactly like we left it.
My garden is growing for the most part. Some of it is overrun with weeds but it is still growing.
They harvested sunflower seeds while we were gone. I think I will plant more soon.
The carrots are big enough to eat. We will enjoy those. We also have green peppers and chile peppers. I am very glad for those. I will write more to everyone soon.
Please write us here at this address now. Clint has the radio and email up and working.
Love
Marilyn
