Everyone is back home from Mexico now. Kelly and I have already started work. Christian is waiting for administrative work to be completed so he can look for an apartment near his new job. Tomorrow, Lorena starts the last class she needs to graduate.

This trip had some challenges, but God has his hand in everything. Those challenges turned into time for discussion and reflection that would not have occurred if everything went smoothly. Out of that reflection and discussion came some ideas to explore about what we should do over the next few years.

The setting in Monterrey was just amazing. There was a very small amount of rain and otherwise spectacular weather. There is no city quite like Monterrey with its multiple mountain ranges around and through the city. The video above shows only a minor piece of the city and some of those mountains.

After several carnes asadas, we did note that it would be very nice to figure out how add a charcoal/mesquite grill to our patio. We are working on that now. There were other, bigger ideas that we are actually working on pretty hard that have to do with our home here in Washington and some possible opportunities in Monterrey and its environs.
