An explanation

Let me make a quick explanation about our posts, to clear any misconceptions.

When we stayed with our Aunt Al and Uncle Julie in England, we were asking for advise as to how to write and format the blog. We said that we wanted to write both pieces about the events of our trip and the ideas behind them. Aunt Julie said that it sounded like reporters at a sports event. You've got an "action man" and a "color man." The first covers the events; the second covers the color behind the events. Sam and I have adopted those names as we write about both the action and the color. We switch off, as we feel led to write.

Secondly, the first date on each blog is just the publish date. This is just the day in which we had time to enter our journal entries onto the blog. The date below, in the main title, is the date it was written.

Please write us with encouragements, rebukes, advise, or news from the states. Samuelbelz@aol.com or Drewbop@gmail.com. It was refreshing yesterday to receive 50ish emails about the engagement of my cousin. All our best from Roma, MCD/S and Jon. Keep reminding us of home.
