that was easy

...met up with ernest for lunch at the block today...i wish i could show you a pic of him but an upload error prevents that...ernie is another awesome younger brother who is walking w/ the Lord and is finding his way in life...he's studying criminology...csi kinda stuff...we had a good time talking about the neat things he's learning vocationally (yesterday he had to do his first mock crime scene) and what God is stirring spiritually (the joys and challenges of witnessing to close friends)...





...afterward a milestone -- claire and i got our international driver's licenses at AAA...remarkable how easy it was...heading for our car 15 minutes after we walked into AAA, we said, "wow, that was easy"....the hard part will undoubtedly come in japan where...they drive on the other side of the road...the steering wheel is on the passenger's side...no doubt, we'll look like idiots when we parallel park for the first time...
