Hi, Vision. How’s it going?

[Vision]

Hi Gina, it’s been a beautiful week off. You?

[WXRGina]

Glad you’ve enjoyed your time off! We’re wishing the holidays would last longer. :-) Back to work for both of us tomorrow and then a VERY interesting week for all of us. :-/

As a young radio listener Mr. Keen was one of my favorites. Also liked Mr. Chameleon, a detective that tricked suspects with his disguises.

It’s in God’s hands.

[WXRGina]

Yep. We may hate the outcome, but God’s will be done.
