News From Browntown

The news from Browntown is that we talked to Jaime on the phone!!! Our Chilean family member has checked in! He sounded great - the same as when he was a high school kid actually. We cannot wait to see him and his family. I am excited about the trip now that we have spoken to him and it is getting close to departure. We asked what he wanted us to bring and the first thing he said without hesitation was PEANUT BUTTER!

I was asking Dad about the possibility of getting some sort of hook up where we could call you all and have some kind of video thing and talk all at the same time while we are there. He said we have to have web cams or video cameras or something. Win, is that possible??

I am going to try to get around town sometime this week to take some pictures of things that Jaime might remember like the High School, soccer field (Emma's suggestion), Union Hall (site of the old United Way office where I worked when Jaime was here - seems like a long time ago), Main Street, etc. Any suggestions for scenes he might be interested in seeing?

We will load the pix onto Dad's laptop and then sort through them and make a CD while we are on the plane. A good activity to keep us occupied during an EIGHT HOUR flight!
