Pizza, Volcano eruption and Mission Sunday
I love those Tortillas! The Cokers and Josephs joined us for a typical Guatemalan steak dinner to help celebrate Glenn's birthday.
It was Mission's Month at the El Camino church, so all the missionaries in the congregation come up front for the body of the church to pray for us. It was neat to have the Lara family up front too. They are Guatemalans who are being sent out from the church to Spain to join Jan and John Lohrenz.

2008 China Olympic Coverage vs 1988 Korea

1. Channel 11, Guatemala station. Turn the sound down because the TV station is scrambled with some radio station. However, the times are not consistent and it is usually a hit and miss thing. Last week we saw a tape delay of the swimming competitions with Michael Phelps.
2. Channel 78 Telemundo Puerto Rico. We watched the delayed opening ceremonies in English (courtesy of NBC). Early this morning at 12:30, the station was broadcasting in Spanish some diving, swimming and soccer competitions.
3. Channel 3 in Guatemala. Again it is a hit miss thing.
4. Channel 77 CBS2 Los Angeles only highlights with still photo shots.
5. Channel 76 CNN update with still photo shots.
6. Channel 75 BBC British version of Olympic competitions.
7. Channel 74 FoxNews updates with still photo shots.
8. Channel 79 Spain
9. Channel 80 Cuba station reporting Olympic events for those in Mexico and South America. Again, it is a hit and miss and no scheduled format.
10. Channel 83 Chile
11. Channel 86 Germany in German.

I remember 20 years ago in September, 1988, while in labor with Gary and even in the hospital room at Foianini Clinic, we had the luxury of receiving Brazilian broadcasts of the Seoul, S. Korea Olympics. It was great to watch the Olympic events during my labor with Gary and afterwards during those late night and early morning "feedings". Memories.
The TV wasn't working in my hospital room, so Glenn brought our TV from home and set it up in my semi-private room. Although the coverage was in Portugeese, I enjoyed watching Carl Lewis, Ben Johnson and Greg Louganis get their medals. This year Michael Phelps stole the show. However, I think Glenn and Judy Stewart should get the medal for the showing of Gary Glenn Stewart, September 20, 1988! Happy early birthday, son!

Now look at my baby, he is nearly 20 years old, a Sophomore at John Brown University and has matured tremendously in the past few months. He is loved by his classmates and teachers on campus. Gary is good with computers and has a helpful spirit just like his dad.
