Cabin in the Country

The friendly folks here in Brunswick, Nebraska (population 129) have put me up for my 4 day visit in a lovely cabin by a pond on remote private property…

It’s a little too chilly fo sliding down the sliding board, using the diving board, or for swimming, but I’ve enjoyed walking around.

I woke up Sunday to a dozen or so wild turkeys. There are also deer and blue heron to be admired from the comfort of the front porch, dozens of easily-spotted trout in the creek just behind the cabin, as well as the beautiful starry nighttime sky far clearer than any I’ve observed for several years.

To top it all off, earlier Monday evening before rushing off for an appointment I enjoyed pulling in three good-size largemouth bass-- 2 of which pulled on the reel’s drag--- all within a half hour!

Early Tuesday morning I caught 4 more nice ones—in just a 20 minute span!

Sunday I had the privilege of sharing three times about Taiwan.  Though there were no meetings Monday, I enjoyed getting together with two couples for good meals and conversations. Meetings are on for both Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. A great start to tour so far!
