Bonjour,

Joe went to the Anyama church this morning. He was going to give the
teenagers a ride a little ways past Belleville, but they didn't even
make it to Belleville. A roadblock had been set up by some of the taxi
drivers. So, they turned around and went back to the Anyama church.
Joe and Romeo went out to a plantation to do some visiting out there;
they could get there on the back roads.

The president met with the representatives for the taxi drivers today.
The ministers are supposed to vote on the president's decisions
tomorrow. Maybe the president will make a speech tomorrow night or
Monday. Please pray that this situation will be resolved soon.

The boys played outside this morning. I got a few things done while
Bonnie took a nap.

This afternoon, the children and I all took a nap. Joe worked in the
office.

After naps, Joe, and the boys went swimming! It was cooler today, so
they did not stay in very long.

Gilbert, Danny, Bonnie, and I went on a walk with Margie. Then, the
boys went over to Margie's house to play for a little bit while I got
supper ready.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
