usually between 9 and 12-then it is clear and lovely
 in the morning and a beautiful day. Sometimes it

March 31-Invited to spend Sunday, April 8, with the
 San Juan, Puerto Rico, church on their tenth anni-

 we might be next week) to provide music for the
 tenth anniversary of his church, both of us as their
 guests. Well, I guess the Lord knows what He's do-
