Hiking on a Saturday
Last Saturday a group of about 20 decided to go for a hike up Lone Tree Hill, a big hill just outside Ukarumpa. We were eager to go, as we have not hiked much since getting here to Ukarumpa. We started by crossing a river about 30 ft wide and up to our knees in some places, we were surprised how cold it was. The hike up the hill took us about an hour and a half, and provided stunning views of the Aiyura Valley and Ukarumpa. We ate a snack in a grove of pine trees at the top of the hill and then descended. On the way down we walked through a few coffee plantations, it is grown as a cashcrop in the valley here. A beautiful hike on a beautiful Saturday -perfect!

Hey Paul and Heidi,
We just returned from Kenya and are loving being back at home with the Christmas season and all. We are missing you though, but know that you are obeying God's will. Can't wait to hear from you next.
Love you.

Hi Heido! Thanks for calling the other day - that was such a treat! Everything here is great so you can stop worrying about me. Drew & I are getting the internet hopefully in January so I promise to email more. Take care of eachother and enjoy your Christmas in PNG.
Love Always,
