Tuesday At Berean

 We were both up by the time the coffee finished. I really like this new coffee machine, it cost a lot less than the Kuerig and is much easier to program each time our electricity goes off. This one is a Proctor/Silex and makes 12 cups when it is programmed to make 12 cups. We could never get our Kuerig to do that. It was a beautiful morning when I left for the walk. I stopped to take the picture below of Evan and Jewel. 

Diane, Ruth and I just walked one round as I needed to leave for the Berean office. Ruth went to mom's after the walk. Mom is still coughing so didn't feel like coming today. She had a bad night and Karin said she was really tired. 
We had a good busy day at the Berean office. Below are a few pictures.
Above Shirley opened up a letter that was filled with scribbles. Below is a close up of that letter. Some of these prisoners may have just a little too much time on their hands.
Marvin brought in a lot of bounty from his garden. There were fresh cucumbers, zucchini, green beans and lots of corn on the cob. All of it was picked this morning so all was very fresh. 
We took everything he brought and shared it with others. Sharon and Irv brought in even more corn on the cob also picked today,
Above Skip is getting the Bibles out for today while both Shirleys work on the studies and Vonnie fills boxes. Below Marvin is working on the returns.
Below is a short video.
When I left there I left with enough corn on the cob to run a bunch down to Sarah and Nolan's house. They had Taegan and Kensley with them so I left extra corn for Phil and  Anna's family then drove to David and Stephanie's house to drop off a Bible for a man from the Rescue Mission and also dropped off corn for their family. When I got back Mark was just getting ready to leave to pick up a mower from the dream center. He saw someone needed a push mower so picked one up there and delivered it. At 6:00 pm all of us girls (Diane, Ruth, Karin, Rachel, Jackie and I met at mom's to watch the movie Pride and Prejudice.  We needed to watch that movie before reading Jackie's book as her book tells the rest of the story of Lydia, the youngest daughter who married at 15 and caused the major scandal of the family.  
Jackie has quite an imagination. The book is on Amazon and called The Nobility of Lydia Wickham. 
It was fun to watch the movie together. Joan called while we were watching to tell us she was in coast  Oregon so we had to tell her we were in England. She really called to let me know the Little Guy Mini Max camper had rented for this weekend and another time in August.
