Chinese Take-out

Tonight we visited with Browning's new grandparents, James and Carol and ate Chinese take-out . . . in the village!  You can call in the order to the restaurant in Homer (the town we fly in and out from), they make the order, deliver it to the airport, and the pilots bring the food over with their regular flight for a small fee.  Chinese delivery to the village made easy!  We can't get that in Doniphan.  We can also get Pizza delivered to the village the very same way.  McDonald's and Starbucks will put your order in a taxi and send it to the airport as well.  The taxi fee is, or course, an additional charge and the likelihood of the food still being incredibly hot is rather small.  However, when you are desperate for a fix to your fast food addiction, you're willing to pay the extra cost and reheating is easily accomplished.

On a school note, we have successfully finished the second week of school and all has gone well so far.  The kids are great and have quit asking questions like "You're going to be here next year?", so we're hoping they have decided we're here for a little while.  I'm guessing from their surprise at that concept they have had several teachers for only a year and do not expect differently of us.  We, however, are enjoying Nanwalek very much and feel very blessed that God placed us here.



James took these pictures at first hole.  You can see the bear catching a fish in one.
