About Me

In October, 1997, my husband Mark and I, decided to move to Ecuador. We settled in Cuenca, the third largest city. It is nestled in a valley surrounded by the Andes Mountain range. It has been an amazing aventure.

Service Shoes Bites the Dust!

Before we moved to Ecuador 12 years ago, we bought really good service shoes. The criteria was they need to last, be comfortable for walking, and not too ugly. The shoes I chose have been my favorite, constant companions and I have been using them for these 12 years, mostly walking up and down the mountains in the ministry. With that much use, they do wear out. So, time and again I have taken them to the shoe repair and just like that they were good as new. Until this last week. I noticed my feet were getting wet walking in the rain and low and behold there was a new hole in the sole of my shoe. This time when I took them to the shoe repair, they received a death sentence. I was informed they cannot be fixed any more. How sad. Where will I find a pair to replace them? Farewelll old friends. SIGH.
