Working our Way back to Africa

I have been working on ''side jobs'' with Ben Pahlow. (That's me on the left with the bulging biceps - no I haven't been to the gym lately, I have been working harder than ever! I may finally be turning the corner on the hard scrabble road. Whew!) Ben is trying to get his seal coating business off the ground. I have been helping. Needless to say it is very difficult nowadays to start a business. (The rich hate the competition!) And the seal coating business is no exception. But the good news is due to the generosity of good friends, I now have enough money to apply for Ruth's visa! The fiancée visa! The one they can't deny! Thank God!
