February 2021

We went to Indiana and looked for a house. It is very expensive near Vincennes and we were not that interested in living in Illinois with the politics. Here is a picture of the yard of one of the houses we looked at.

One of the treasures from Grandpa Carley's house was a copy of the Federal Register from 1971 which contained some of the first OSHA regulations. This fits well with Troy's health and safety work. Sparkle enjoys sitting on the back of Grandpa's couch.

Pastor Scott back for a visit

Troy's birthday cake.

It was very cold and our pond was so frozen that we could walk on it. Then it snowed and we played in it a little. Troy drove back to work in Indiana and he had to shovel out a place in the apartment parking lot so he could park his car. He spent a couple of hours shoveling snow after his 4 hour drive.

Abby came home for a short break and we enjoyed spending some time with her before she went back to Andrews.

MSHA changed their COVID policy and Troy was sent home to telework most of the time.

A church in the Philippines requested help from our church and our church was blessed to be able to help them complete their building project.
