Gimpel and Gumby to Papua New Guinea. That was our handles when we were younger, but it became 'going to png' We lived there for over 12 years and are back in the U.S. now adapting to live and viewing life through a much different lens. I rarely update my blog because I tend to be too long winded and I frankly don't know who wants to read this stuff anyway. I'm not sure if my thoughts help the world, but I'm putting it out there just in case it does.

Fly
Today we were recording 1 Corinthians Chapter 12, and over the headphones I heard a buzzing. I couldn't tell if it was in the control room or the studio. Benjamin suddenly pointed, and we saw a large horsefly on the INSIDE of the studio window glass. It was in the mic'd room! So I called a break.
I opened the double doors, walked into the sound-resistant room and there was Peter, the reader. I had a rolled up manual and was swatting at the fly and missing. The fly was circling around the room.
Peter stood and watched... watched... watched.... I was on my fourth swing...
Then, suddenly Peter swatted his hand, I heard 'thwack, thunk'.
And sure enough, on the ground lay a dead fly.
Without saying a word, Peter sat back down and put his headphones back on, as if to say 'now, let's get back to recording'.
I congratulated him on his kill, and we went back to work. I'm still amazed at how effectively he downed the fly.
