Mary Jo’s parents are here! They flew in on Sunday evening. It’s now Tuesday. We have been doing stuff, but in unual Mary Jo and Will fashion, we haven’t been blogging. Expect some sort of big post later… like next weekend. Today begins our traveling around the country, so there’s going to be a lot […]
We’ve been having some pretty nice weather around here lately, so on Tuesday we decided to take a little walk down south to a cemetery. I know, I know, creepy. Before we get to that, we wanted to show you a neat tree near where we live. From far off it looks fairly normal. Then […]
Only a few things to report. On Saturday, we went to a barbecue picnic thing behind the building as a celebration of a friend’s birthday. The weather was nice and the food was decent. We made ham pickle creamcheese rolls, which most people thought were odd, except for those from Wisconsin or Minnesota. Everyone decided […]
When I learned German in high school, it was all based around little stories about these two young people named Michael und Sabine.

We actually got harassed about not updating! Rightly so I would say. Unfortunately, there just hasn’t been much to update you on. Joni has been teaching and I’ve been studying for a certification exam this week. Speaking of this week, the end of the week will be quite interesting. Jenna, a friend from college will […]
Today we decided to visit the little lake near Linz. We managed to find it with no trouble whatsoever. All we needed to do was take a bus up to a semi-large stop, then get on another bus that brought us right there. Of course as with most lakes, the second we got there we […]
After Sheepie got settled in, things got pretty quiet here. I’m done teaching that business English course, and my German course has ended. Mary Jo is just going along doing her teaching thing. The only real news is that the weather has been beautiful here. It’s been pushing 70 degrees and has just been wonderful. […]
Well, after the adjustment “issues” we had with the last addition to the family, I’m glad to see that Sheepie is fitting right in.
