Stateside...

Well...I'm here in Woodinville, WA, U.S.A. Since my return from Hungary we've been blessed with rainy weather-overcast and cool. I love it!

The photo here to the right is of the castle at Godollo...Queen Erzebet--or Elizabeth--or Sisi as the people commonly referred to her. She was one of the most beloved royals in Hungary.

Hungary is a small country with huge history. I am continually fascinated by the culture that has been formed here with so much influence from others yet with such independence and national pride.
This shot to the left is of 'the yellow castle' at Word of Life Hungary. There is much renovation that needs to be done...but it is an amazing place as well. It is apparently a historical place and renovation will not only be costly...but require going through a lot of red tape.

I also heard tales of WoL Germany...where there are TWO castles and beautiful trees and other examples of creation all about. Someday...someday...

I was bummed not to have more access to the internet while in Budapest...and will be better prepared next go 'round! So many thoughts to share...and photos!

I do pray I'll be able to return to WoL Hungary...and if possible to spend some more time exploring and learning even more of the history and language of this fine country.

Looking to the past, I wonder what the future holds as this place yearns to be fully a part of the European Union...

Honestly so many adventures to tell of...perhaps they will spill out over time. I don't want to bore with silly history lessons or ramble on with my feeble musings :) I did procure some little tid-bits along my journey to assist in learning a bit more of the language...and as always in leaving, I have added at least three things to my "must do in Hungary" list.

Home is nice too.

I've begun publishing some new things on my googlepages. All the Hungary stuff can be navigated from the main Hungary link on my homepage. I'll have to find a new moose to put up front...and I'm still thinking of adding at least one Disney page.

I hope everyone is well...thank you for your prayers. Please keep Word of Life (everywhere, and especially Hungary) in prayer...and the possibility of my return to assist Elet Szava once again. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up with everyone soon!
