HOLIDAY GREETINGS...To all our family and friends that have supported us in our move half way around the world...we wish all of you a most joyous holiday season, and a healthy and prosperous 2009!
Each and every one of you are with us each day, not only in spirit, but in our daily discussions with one another. It's so very difficult to put into words the "specialness" that each of you have within our hearts. It has been no doubt the hardest part of our transition in that we are so far removed from so many that are so dear. Although we are thankful that with today's technology we are allowed to visit with so many via "Skype." Being able to both speak and see each other as though we're sitting in the same room brings a lot of comfort and helps ease the distance we have between us. We feel as though we're still connected and still a part of each others lives. 
With our upcoming move to Chiang Mai at the end of the month we'll have a home large enough to accommodate all that wish to visit us here in the"land of smiles." Hmm...free lodging. Hope that is enticing as it should lessen the overall costs to some extent. Once you get here you'll be pleasantly surprised how affordable dining and drinking is, not to mention entertainment and massages! We're getting ready for you, so you should plan and get ready.
Okay, no more rambling on with the usual long narratives. We'll leave you with the following highlights from our first six months here.
Love to all, Sherman & Phyllis
