I apologize but there will be not picture with this post. We arrived back in Georgetown this morning (Sept. 15). We were able to make it through immigrations without too much trouble. The woman asked to see our tickets for departure and I explained that our departure arrangements were being arranged for us from here in 'town (we will be departing in December for two weeks to go to the Internastional Convention in Trinidad.) She told me she wasn't to issue visas without seeing departure tickets. I just looked at her and shrugged and she hesitated for a moment, but then gave us three month visas which will last until we go out for the convention. When we return we will be with a large group of witnesses, so hopefully it will go smoothly. But that will be another story.
We will be travelling to the Ridge on Friday. I understand the Fishers will be leaving the following Wednesday, so we will get to spend some time together, but not so much that the apartment would begin to feel crowded.
Stephan was travelling to the Ridge today. He had been back to the states (and Mexico) for a short visit and had returned to Guyana on the 2nd. He has another brother from the states with him for a short visit. On returning to Guyana, he had gone to Mabaruma for a couple of weeks since one elder there (brother Gomes) was in 'town getting married to Rasheeda and the other brother (brother Anthony) was in 'town for Pioneer School. Brother Gomes and his wife returned this last weekend, so Stephan went back to the Ridge.
I know this was short, but I wanted to post something up ASAP so everyone would know we reached back safely. I will try to do another post before we travel to the Ridge on Friday.
Hope everyone is well and thanks for your interest and support.
