A Full Day

The evening is rapidly running out, and bedtime is quickly approaching. Right now I am in the middle of a glass of wine, Yellowtail Shiraz, one of my very favorites. It has been a productive day with a lot being accomplished and some very nice conversations along the way. Most of those conversation I am compelled to keep in confidence, but lets just say that the news is generally good. Surprise of surprises, dinner was consumed at 7:30pm rather than after 9:00 tonight

I want to share an update on Mark Munderloh, the Laborer For Christ injured in the electrical accident at the St John's Lutheran Church building site a week and a half ago. Mark's wife Liz was back in Spokane from late Monday afternoon until midday today, getting their RV ready to drive back across the state to the Seattle area. Jim and Carol Bouvin went with her once again today, with Jim driving the RV, Carol driving their car (so they can get back again) and Liz driving her car. Jim and Carol have been a big help and blessing, as has the entire Laborers For Christ community. Mark is still in very serious condition. His legs have become swollen, and he is no longer moving them. He thinks that he is, but he is not. The swelling is keeping the doctors from performing reconstructive surgery on the back of his head, because they cannot safely administer anesthesia. It now looks like he will spend several months at Harborview Medical Center. Please, continue to lift up Mark and Liz in your prayers.

A quick word on the weather, it was another beautiful day. The high temperature was 80 degrees and the sky was again a beautiful shade of blue. Tomorrow will be the warmest day of the week as the afternoon temperatures rise to the upper 80s, and a few spots around the metro area hit 90 degrees. That is about 20 degrees above normal. It will cool off a bit Thursday, Friday and into the weekend, but only a bit each day. On Thursday we should top off in the middle 80s, Friday the low 80s, and then the upper 70s to near 80 degrees Saturday and Sunday. Through that time it will be dry with sunny days and clear cool nights.
