travel update
I’m in Seattle. It’s bright and sunny, if cold. We begin a CCDA board meeting in about a half hour. I’m trying to get net access here at Seattle Pacific University, but the decision maker is in a meeting. Such is life. We had a good time last night at the Fremont Abbey. Whew! I’m part of emerging church stuff, but nothing prepared me for the Abbey. They are doing some good things in an environment that is very, very different from my context in Northwest Pasadena. We had, what, over 40 people last night? At the Mustard Seed conversation, Tom Sine and Christine Sine and Eliacin Rosario and them. Tom Sine is a cook and a host, good man, him and Christine. I should have figured that out. But the burritos were good, Jefe. Julio Hernandez came down from Vancouver, Canada. Lou Carlo from NYC showed a face, as did John Booy from Grand Rapids (both in town for CCDA board). I’m rooming with Carlo. We had breakfast this morning with Nancy Murphy from Mars Hill Graduate School. We sat at a place called 5 Spot, not bad. At the end of the evening last night I had an interview with folks from The Other Journal. They bought pizza from Zeeks, so I endorse them fully (thought I should probably go read an issue of The Other Journal before I do so). Did I say Dwight Friesen was there? So now we are going into meetings with CCDA folks to do, you know, Carver-level policy stuff. It’s a drag when you can’t get internet on demand (I’m typing this on an SPU net computer here in a coffee shop, the guy next to me keeps looking to see what I’m typing).

There were 58 people last night.
You forgot to mentioned that your video is among very good company in my computer.
Thanks again.
Give my regards to la familia. Dr. Carlo is going to be my brother’s father-in-law in June!
Can you define “Carver-level policy stuff”? It sounds intriguing but I have no idea what kind of connotation that has.
Thanks.
Yo, Hermano
It was great to see you.
Great job on Mon. night.
You rocked the Abbey.
I was deeply moved by your love for your people (all colours in Cali).
It was deep.
Un gran abrazo,
Julio
You like the canadian spelling of colors.
The canadians are transforming me.

There use to be a place at the Pike’s Market called “El Puerco Llorón,” I don’t know if it is there anymore. Great tacos and other assorted goodies vato. At least you can get a glimpse of the guys flinging Steelhead Salmon through the air. Ah! The Emerald City! Enjoy brother!
