We arrived in Israel today. Haven't really seen any sites yet, but what we have seen is lovely. Very green. No grass, but lots of trees. And it's funny, but there's something about being here. Just thinking about walking in Jesus' homeland. I almost started crying while we were driving here to our guest house. It almost feels like coming home, to know that my saviour was here. Heh heh...speaking of, I wonder if he carved that on a tree: Jesus wuz here. In English of course. I'm certain Jesus spoke English. Maybe we'll see that tree in our touring. N-E-wayz...
Okay, serious again, it reminded me that I really do have another home. A place I'll be for eternity. A place where if anyone asks for a baksheesh, I'll just point to the ground. And so now, being in Israel, away from Utah, away from heaven, I find myself in a home away from home away from home. 'sniffle' Aaaahhh, that was beautiful, right? I hope you had your tissues with you.
Did ew know...?
Falafel - Israel's national snack.
Thank you for choosing Lod's Little Tidbits, and have a nice day.

Blessings...felt like the right thing to say at the time. HAVE A BLAST!!
OK, I'll ask. What is Falafel? By the way, in one of your earlier pictures of the two cats/kittens: several of guys at work were wondering if you and Elizabeth were selecting your next meal, similar to people here selecting their lobster meal from an aquarium. Is that what it was?
