Spent the next few days visiting with additional “looper” friends that we have not seen in a while. A great deal of time was also devoted to answering texts and call from family and friends asking about Adam & Gal. Thankfully they have supportive family ties in Israel working to keep all as safe as possible given the circumstances. Please continue to keep them, and all of Israel in your thoughts and prayers.

On a lighter note, I am beginning to master the Instant Pot-thank you Adam for my new cooking device! Made spaghetti sauce that was a 90% success. These next few days are “nesting” days when cooking and cleaning are at the top of the agenda as we may have some days without power and water hookups while traveling the Illinois River.
