A drip of life in Vancouver

So my web toes are feeling right at home. All the water may change my speech and you’ll not be surprised to hear me say “rib-bit” when I answer the phone. My damp backside is wondering why I chose to get on the bike today and pedal to the local free wi-fi coffee shop :-)
Here is a shot from this morning off our fourth floor balcony. This is one of the bridges from Vancouver over to Portland. We get to see it every day. Construction can be heard nearly every day. It’s a happening day!

Two nights ago we had a guy show up in the parking lot and start apologizing to his girlfriend. At 2am with a booming voice. Loudspeaker? I do not know but he had a really good vocal projection and desperately informed us all that he is a good person - he is even memorizing scripture. I felt real sorry for for the guy and prayed for him while trying to go back to sleep. Does that make any sense? Sleep & Pray? Hmm.

Eventually a tenant colorfully “asked” him to leave. He said thank you, for the reminder of the time and did leave. I wonder if I will get to meet him personally…

    Hi Griffins! It’s good to hear that you guys are doing well. Elijah and Zeke talk about Gabby and Hanakah often. We miss having you as neighbors! (sniff)

    We’re glad for your transition.. and for the thought that we’ll be able to connect more often once we make a similar move! It will be good to connect again!
