News Flash - major snowstorm buries Pohang!!

Hey kids, it was great talking to each and all of you last night - we had a great time "rapping" (remember that one Nettie?) - even though the old man got tired and went to bed at midnight - can you imagine!!! Well, one of the reasons I went to bed when I did was that I figured 7:30 a.m. would roll around soon enough and then we'd have an all-day Handong University in-service in which to spend our 29th engagement anniversary - well, guess what - we woke up to snow falling this morning and it hasn't let up since! We were just about to leave the apartment at about 8:50 when we got the call that the in-service was being delayed, likely to 1:00 p.m. due to the snowstorm. Maybe this sounds selfish, but, to us, that was good news - we could use the morning off - it got even more intersting - about 11:00 a.m., we received an email over the Handong website telling us that the inservice was cancelled for the day. Then, early this afternoon, while the snowstorm was still raging away, we learned that the in-service was cancelled for Tuesday as well. We went into the office for a bit and then left for home, dancing through the snow and throwing snowballs at each other. I'd forgotten to turn the heat off, so the apartment was like a blast furnace! Mom made pizza, we watched a great old movie (Remembering Henry - with Harrison Ford and Annette Benning - a great movie!) and now we've just come back from a walk through the snow - beautiful - and it's still snowing! I've estimated that we've got between 20-30 cms. on the ground now already - who knows how much we'll have by tomorrow - pictures to follow tomorrow! GOD IS GOOD - Its been a WONDERFUL 29th engagement anniversary!!!!

Mom and I hope and pray that you're all doing well, and that you'll have wonderful weeks ahead of you!! We're praying for each of you!!!!

LOVE, ALWAYS AND FOREVER,

-Dad-
