Things have been moving along. We finally are able to take possession of the apartment we rented either the 22nd or the 23rd. We have a great deal of cleaning to do before  we get comfortable. Looks like the place has not been cleaned in years. the kitchen walls are .... brown.. but painted Blue.. The Truck we got is doing better, we had to fix the carburetor, the battery, the barrings in the back two wheels. We had to push start it for almost a week until we got the battery done. I was amazed to see them use a basting ball to pull the water out of the battery and check to see if it was good.  The truck is a 1999 Renault. There are 2 captain's chairs and that is all. The kids and I flop around the back while Lala (translator) and Blue drive us around. They drive on the American side of the road and out steering wheel is also on the correct side. So that makes their crazy driving a little easyer..
Kids are all good and Blue and I are getting by... I have lots to post on the Blog but we have had problems opening the program I wrote it in.. SO.. I Will get to that soon enough...

We hope you are all well and WE love and miss you!! XOXO
THE CRANES

 May God Bless and Keep You in His Graces Every Moment of Every Day!
