GOOD NEWS!

Grant's Eagle Scout project has been approved! Now all he has to do is finish it. He is building two wooden bridges for QAWS (Qatar Animal Welfare Society). QAWS is located on a small farm outside Doha. The farm is surrounded by drainage ditches (the few things they grow are irrigated). They are using wooden planks to walk over the ditches. These bridges will be a big help.
We already have the wood for the bridges. Having scouts here on Saturday to start building. The school Friendship Festival is Friday -about 5,000 people expected to attend. I am in charge of the Silent Auction - over 100 items. Will be a busy weekend! At least it is a 3 day weekend for the kids - they have Sunday off (the weekend here is Friday and Saturday).

Good for Grant!!! How is he feeling after the accident? I wish Josh had gotten that far. I really thought he would....but he got disillusioned by a change in the leadership and just gave up. Sad.
