The days are long and hot in the South Pacific. Josh was able to take a week off from work while the boys were on Holiday and we enjoyed or vacation together. We ventured to the beach with friends and spent time at home playing games and watching movies. We even did our new traditional family sleep over on the living room floor with our mattresses. We were unable to do the sliding rock because of the flooding from rain but we did go to the pool cave and jump into the water before another storm forced us to go home early. Recent storms have brought relief with cool rain and winds. The boys have returned to school and Maria is trying to get the house back in order. Josh stills enjoys work even though he hasn't been in the ocean with the boys for a couple of weeks now. The humidity of Terre Haute summers has definitely made life here easier. As long as I can feel a breeze I am fine. The temperature doesn't seem to be as high as it is. Reportedly we are in the 90's but it seems like 80's to me. We are very blessed that we haven't had any typhons hit this summer, although they have hit neighboring islands.
