Bonjour,

This morning, Joe went into Abidjan to go grocery shopping.  The Litson girls came over to play while their parents went into town.  Joe brought some pizzas home for lunch.

After the girls went home, the boys went down for a nap.  I went for a walk with Margie and Sarah.

Joe was on the phone concerning the container.  The exoneration papers have still not been received from the customs office.  He will have to go check on those on Monday.  As of Monday, the container will have been in the port for a week.  After a week, they begin charging storage fees.

Nathan Post was able to see a better doctor today.  He made some adjustments on Nathan’s cast.  Nathan will have to have surgery on Monday to have pins and plates put in.  We are going to keep the other Post boys from Sunday afternoon until Tuesday morning.

A demain,
