My mom, Leslie, and I.

Costa Rica is a beautiful country in Central America, full of beaches, jungles, and volcanos. Here, my mom, Leslie (left) and I (right) are looking down into the crater of a big volcano.



Out on a field trip.

Excuse the glare on this image. This was a jungle trail near the crater. I might mention that Mom home-schooled us back then, and by golly, Costa Rica sure offered a lot of fun field trip destinations! We loved field trip days!



Dad

The Costa Rican people just adored my dad. Here he is praying for a little boy (dedicating him to the Lord).



A baptism

And here he is getting ready to baptize some people in the river.



Dad

And here he is hanging out with some of his congregation during a church picnic. I'm noticing he's wearing the same T-shirt as in the pic above, only in this image it has faded out a little. Dad always was (and still is) a casual dresser. He rarely wore a suit and tie while preaching.

I took this picture of the trees, in the backyard one freezing morning. Brrrrr! Someday, I may use it as a doll background or something.


An Artistic Picture of Rhea

Rhea, and a pasture buddy

This lovely picture of Rhea next to another horse has had an Adobe Elements cross-hatch filter thrown over it, making it look more like a painting.
