  • We've been home about a week enjoying paradise. Retired life in Ajijic, Mexico on Lake Chapala. RV Life. Projects in the mountains of central Mexico, our USA travels in a 40' Monaco motor home, or whatever else is on my mind today. :)

    You are such a kind sweet man and its so endearing to see how much you truly love your wife. You are a great example of what true love is. You shine very bright for the Most High God. You not only have a holy shirt but the Holy spirit! Keep showing the love of the Lord and His peace that passes all understanding.

    Jerry, fellow Dane? I wish to apologize for stopping you in the street because you looked so familiar, but I couldn’t remember from where I knew you. If I had remembered I would not have stopped you, because I respect your privacy.
    I was born in Denmark just before the beginning of WWII.
    Remember the war. Lived in Argentina from my 7th to my 20th year.

I must have made over 70-80 necklaces………gave them all away. Then I started working on wire “fun” rings. Before I took a break, I was making ‘tree of life’ pendants or necklaces. I’d go crazy looking through all those beads and crystals…etc. DARN….OREGON IS A LITTLE TOO FAR AWAY. (Medford Or.). Oh well. Take care Jerry. Enjoyed your song Lynn!
