How to leave comments

I've been trying to find an easy link so that you can leave comments.

1. You can click on the time stamp for our posts. This will open a new window where your note can be typed.

2. Once a comment thread has been started you can click on the word comment and again a window will open where you can see other comments and add your own.

3. Another option is that when we leave a new post we can leave the first comment - "with a comment like -- leave us some feed back or whatever!!" If you're still having a problem leaving a comment then send us an email and we'll try to sort it out.

Welcome to our new mission blog

We thought it would a good idea to have a central location where we can update everyone on our new mission. We will give some background on why we're going, our preparations and what we think we'll be doing. Once in Africa we'll note our comings and goings, thoughts, pictures, etc. This is new to us so there might be a few boo-boo's until we get the hang of it. We hope that this will also double as our journal so that we can "kill two birds with one stone". (Just an expression we don't plan on killing any birds -- didn't mean to upset the children!!)

If you have others that you know that might be interested in our pictures and musings, let us know and we'll add their names to our list. This is a closed blog and currently is only open for viewing by invitation. We would especially like to send notices to each grandchild that has their own email account.

Posts will be allowed. You will be able to add your questions and comments to each posting for others to view. Feedback will help us know what interests you so that we can keep it entertaining and informative.
