Can't give direct translation, but the church was shown with the Eiffel tower in Paris...Then something was done and it was dismantled in Brussels and shiped out....Or something like that..We need a fluent Spanish speaker..lol..
.......Westy...

[palo verde]

oh thanks westy
so that is the story
I had no idea why they said Paris, then Brussels
it did not add up for me
their church certainly was designed by famous architect

[palo verde]

I love you
Palo

ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI, JUNE 22, 2002, 6:00 p.m. CDT (JUNE 22, 2002, 23:00 UTC) "You know, my chances of a successful flight almost collapsed this morning when the weather changed," - - Steve Fossett noted in an email to Mission Control. During day four of soaring high above the earth's surface at over 20,000 feet, Bud Light Spirit of Freedom has been forced to make an unexpected dip close to the surface to avoid cyclones in the South Pacific Ocean. Skimming the waves at altitudes as low as 400 feet (121.9 meters), Pilot Steve Fossett has been forced to use full burners to avoid sinking any lower in this deliberate attempt to avoid heavy and dangerous storm fronts over the South Pacific.

I found this guy who will work cheap...
As long as his jug don't run dry..lol
So the lights are out, the candle lit.
All the door folks can sleep easy..
They are probably as drunk as the watchman....
See you all mañana, with a bit of luck....
.......Westy...

[HairOfTheDog]

Did we not pay up on the night watchman fund? We are using a "will work for bootleg whiskey guy?"

[westmex]

Hi Hair
Clem the weekend watchman was lured off by AC for more money...lol....
We might be lucky to keep this guy....

Westy

[HairOfTheDog]

OK, he seems harmless enough... Glad you found him. Guess it's a cellar's market...





[grimace]

[westmex]

Well, he does seem happy and energetic. Hope he doesn't wear himself out before morning.....lol..(;-)

ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI, JUNE 23, 2002, 4:00 a.m. CDT (JUNE 23, 2002, 09:00 UTC) After an exhausting day of uncertainty and risk, Steve Fossett is finally getting some much-needed slumber. After swooping down to remarkably low levels (as low as 400 feet or 120 meters) to duck under wayward winds, Bud Light Spirit of Freedom rose back up to cruising altitude at 24,500 feet (7468 meters) not long ago. With the situation now more stable, Steve is grabbing catnaps between calls from Mission Control, where an up-to-date trajectory plan is being formulated to capitalize on the strongest easterly winds. The only way the balloon can be steered is by rising or falling to an altitude where the wind direction varies with the desired heading. Mission Control is currently pinpointing wind directions at various altitudes via complex mathematical weather models and advising Steve which altitude to maintain. Bud Light Spirit of Freedom should be back on the fast track soon, skirting around a cyclone weather system and on toward South America. The current position is 45 degrees south latitude and 142 degrees west longitude.
