Using Your Free time Wisely!!

For the last two weeks, Tomo has been in the Seattle area.  He has been preparing for his trip to India and Sri Lanka. (He leaves on December 12th for Mumbai.)  While getting prepared by shopping and doctoring to receive the precautionary injections, Tomo help a man with a few oversized load deliveries and found himself traveling in pre Thanksgiving traffic.  Not easy in a normal size vehicle, but a challenge and a half with an oversized load!!

With that delivery out of the way, Tomo found a warm welcome and a wonderful time for Thanksgiving with some lovely friends K & L.  At their lovely home, he  enjoyed some wonderful fellowship together with L & K and some other like-minded friends.   
Friendly Hockey with the friends in Renton.
Just south of Seattle, in the town of Renton, some of our friends gather together to play friendly hockey and those who are not interested either just skate on another rink or watch the fun on the ice from the gallery.  In the year of driving truck, this was the one thing that Tomo really missed!  Tomo has joined a few times, but this time Blake S. tried his luck at hockey using Tomo's gear.  While working in Granite Falls, he had played amateur hockey and really enjoyed it.  So it was nice to be back in the ice rink again.

In the last week, Tomo has been able to take on the project of finding the 'leak' around his sunroof.  Here are some photos of the project in progress!  Not sure if he has found the leak but he does know how to get things all taken apart!!  Now we only hope he took photos at each step to help him put it back together!
