"Morning at Qumran, site of the discovery of Dead Sea Scrolls. Then Swimming/floating in the Dead Sea and covering in mud for the health of the skin. Onto Bethany and the tomb of Lazarus, and Church on top of house of Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. Into Jerusalem for view of city and old city, the mount of the temple. Finally to Bethlehem to shop and get to new hotel."

Israel Day 2
"First thing this morning on the Jesus boat on the sea of Galilee. Where Jesus calmed the storm and walked on water. Mount of Beatitudes, Capernum, and Mount Hermon. Baptized in the Jordan River along with 20 others from Chowan.
Walked all over where Jesus ministered, great day"

Israel
A message from Soccer Dad, his first full day in Israel:
In Tiberius at the Caesar hotel on the sea of Galilee. It is beautiful. Today we went to Cesarea and Herod's palace, Meggedo or Armageddon, Nazareth and Cana. Great day, tomorrow we will travel on and around the Sea of Galilee and do Baptisms in the Jordan River.

Something to Crow About
Not to keep going on about the critters in our midst, but I think it is necessary to to tell the you about our friendly neighborhood birds.
A few days ago, as I was taking clothes off the line and holding baby sis ( I know, I know, quite the multi-tasker), two fighting birds flew into my feet and fluttered about for a few seconds before flying away. Needless to say, I let out a "yop!"
Even more frightening than that, as Soccer Dad was making his specialty, BBQ chicken, some birds did the same to him, except in his rear end. To make matters worse, our nut dog, Brooklyn, who likes to chase the birds out of our yard, decided to attack the birds attacking the rear end of my beloved hubby.

Dead ant, dead ant
Ants, ants, ants, ants, Ants, ants, ants, ants la la la la la la CHARGE!
You know you have too many ants in your house when you ask your two year old what she's doing and she says she's watching the ants walk by.
Ahhhhh, ants, please go away. Soccer Dad has sprayed the outside perimeter of our home and smooshed and wiped them away several times on the inside with no avail. I know they've probably been invading this house since the fifties, when our house was built, but who are the ones paying the mortgage here?
Even if there is not a speck of food in the kitchen they still come and drink what little water they can find. Poor little thirsty guys.
Okay, I'm done with the ants now.
Aren't you glad you just wasted a minute of your time reading about our little invaders?
Now I'm really done.
