(read more)Sunday in Israel is the first day of the week. Everyone is bustling about doing errands and going to work–quite a site. The week has started. I returned the rental car back to the agency. I think this is the first time I have driven in Israel in all the times I have been here. […]
(read more)Will and I head North today. We spend a quiet Saturday in Netanya on the beach. If I had not watched the TV or read the newspaper, I would not know that any kind of “War” is going on in Israel. Haifa is about 2 hours, by car, from Jerusalem. Netanya is about an hour […]

(read more)It is Tuesday morning in Jerusalem, and I am trying to digest all the news that I have watched since returning here. Fox News still seems to be the most balanced. Forget CNN and the BBC—what a bunch of junk! Again they are blaming the Israelis for this mess. I did not want to watch […]
(read more)I have many thoughts on this past weekend. I want to write everything down so quickly. I don’t want to forget one thing.

(read more)I am thinking we will be the only people at breakfast, but there is an American. We talk about what is going on. He was with a group digging and touring. The students have all left because their parents made them go home. We get on the road—still no traffic. We are off to northern […]
(read more)We are the only ones at breakfast. Will has our day planned out and off we go. Our first stop is Safed. There is no one on the road. I still think, “OK, it is Shabbat.” There is no one on the road. We find an apartment that has been hit by a rocket and […]
