The hummingbirds already seemed to have left. The squirrels are gathering their nuts outside while I write. And the leaves are already turning their golden yellows, bright oranges and reds.

We sat through one of our first spring storms the other day. It wasn’t an Indiana storm where the sky becomes an almost black and where lightning crashes along with thunder and you hold on to your hat. This storm was a typical one for this part of Romania, the sky gets dark, a little [...]

The month of April has met us with warm and sunny days, perfect for lots of work in the garden at Casa Vale. Josh has been busy building rock walls and walkways to better define the garden space, while I’ve been planting seeds and transplanting flowers. The servant team has been very [...]

It has already been over three weeks since we have returned from a five week trip to the States. That time renewed us in many ways. Being with family and friends was refreshing. We were able to see our beautiful niece, Cadence, for the first time and her funny, smart older [...]
