METEOROLOGY 101

"I'm ready Mamo"
"I hope it stay's up"
"Wow, it's flying high"
.....for a while :(
Today Victor and I "attempted" to fly a kite! How much fun for me just trying again...it's been several years since I've tried to fly a kite. However the weather was just not cooporating. As you can see our kite was up....and then down. The problem I had was trying to explain to Victor about the wind. He just kept asking, "why"...so my Mamo teaching skills were very limited. I needed my next door neighbor Rick who is a meteorologist for the National Weather B. here in Louisville. We had a great time and our kite did stay up a while and I convienced Victor that flying the kite on the beach in New Smyrna Beach will be much easier and lots of fun.

The Loss of a dear friend.

On July 3 a dear, dear friend of ours, Chips Cronen returned to Heaven. He will be missed. We pray and ask for prayers for his wife Barbra and sons.
I came across this scripture that seems to be appropriate for Chips, it reads from Ephesians 6: 16-18
"At all times carry faith as a shield; for with it you will be able to put out all the burning arrows shot by the evil one. And accepting salvation as a helmet, and the word of God as the sword which the Spirit gives you. Do all this in prayer, asking for God's help. Pray on every occassion, as the Spirit leads. For this reason keep alert and never give up; pray always for God's people."

This is just one thought that gives "light" to the life of Chips Cronen. He was truly a prayer warrior. I've counted on his prayers many times and will continue to do so..
