October 1st update

Howdy, well I am back in Ecuador for a bit to apply for my new Visa. I was not planning to return until November, but I cannot be out of the country more than 90 days. If I go beyond the 90 days, I would have had to start from scratch for the new visa. As it so happened the vacuum pump was removed from my knee a week earlier, so it made my decision easier.

After leaving the hospital my sister dropped me off at the Parer’s home to start my outpatient treatment. All I can say is thank you to Andrea and Andy for taking me in, such gracious hosts. With everything going on like a new addition to their family it was a good time. Mae was born and Arthur kept me paying attention. Thanks again for putting up with me.

Not only was Mae born but Also Ellie, so two new great nieces. Yahoo, very cool. It is nice to know that they are all doing so well.

The welcome at the airport was more than i had expected. So much for slipping back quietly. Thanks to everyone for the smiles! I am slowly healing and am starting my paperwork on the visa this month. After it is taken care of, I need to head back to the states to take care of business there.

Life is good and I sincerely thank my family and friends!! God bless you all.

PS. Same here as in the USA, they won’t let drive a car or ride my motorcycle. ugh!

This picture just makes me smile

Ash, Jason and newest family member Ellie!
Arthur knows me as uncle NO.
Went by to see what happened to Aunt Ev’s place.
The welcoming committee I was not expecting patiently waiting.
So much for sneaking back in the country under the radar.
