Hello, Friends.
Tuesday we got the remnants of the tropical storm Cristobol. Did you feel the humidity rise? Could you smell the ocean? Wednesday evening we got cool winds that feel more like vacationing in Door County, Wisconsin thanks to the winds coming out of the west that dropped snow in Colorado. This one of the best things about Indiana: you can experience two kinds of vacation weather in one day in your own yard!
The weekend was chilly: is this because the neighborhood pool opened? The weather knows! It never fails that when pools open the temperature is cold and when they close we have some of our hottest weather!
Be sure to get out after dark. The fireflies are out!
The song Fireflies by Owl City is the song to go along with this outing.
English
One of our Friends told me that she watches her favorite daytime TV and rewinds and plays and speaks the phrases after the actors to fine tune her English. Another Friend forwarded this punny note (I did a little language clean up) that describes the different medical experts jobs.
Medical experts were asked if it is time to ease the lockdown.
Allergists were in favor of scratching it, but Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.
Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but Neurologists thought the government had a lot of nerve.
Obstetricians felt certain everyone was laboring under a misconception, while Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.
Many Pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!" while Pediatricians said, "Oh, grow up!"
Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while Radiologists could see right through it.
Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing and Pharmacists claimed it would be a bitter pill to swallow.in
Plastic Surgeons opined that this proposal would "put a whole new face on the matter."
Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea.
Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas, and Cardiologists didn’t have the heart to say no.
Proctologists had their say in the end.

COVID-19
The United States continues to open up. Have you been out? Stage 4 guidelines allow for greater gatherings and opens more options. Dr. Box talked about taking children to parks and allowing them to play on the playgrounds on Wednesday: she recommended using hand sanitizer regularly and thoroughly washing their hands when returning home. She also commented to save snacks until you return home and have a chance to clean up properly.
People who are asymptomatic with COVID 19 are still contagious. Please wear a mask to protect those around you and socially distance from others, use hand sanitizer, wash thoroughly when you get home.
asymptomatic: not showing or having signs of an illness
International Bible Study: Tuesdays, 9:30-10:30, Zoom
Jesus is confronted by the leaders of the Jewish religion. They ask Jesus where he gets his authority.
What a timely discourse. The Jewish leader choose to say I don't know. Jesus chooses not to answer. Jesus demonstrates that sometimes there is no discussion or negotiating. Jesus decides not to waste his words.
June 16: Join us as we start Mark 12. Jesus teaches using a parable.
International Friends: Tuesdays, 10: 30-12:00, Zoom.
We continue to meet via Zoom. There are some great online camps for you children:
- Varsity Tutors had week long virtual free camps throughout the summer. Have some virtual fun and learn through August.
- Learn with Create & Learn with free events and online open classes. Audition some past Open Classes by watching recordings or sign up.
Somehow we always end up talking about food (maybe because we aren't eating together?). We enjoyed sharing some favorites.
- Ramen Ray: very traditional Japanese ramen fix on the East side near Allisonville Road. Family developed recipes.
- Yujo: former employee at Ramen Ray opened this gem and West side ramen fix (\with bubble tea).
- Ocean World: is always a go-to for sushi and box lunches and dinners.
- Superbowl Pho: and speaking of soups...how about Pho? Vietnamese food in Westfield.
- Chao: a favorite place for Vietnamese food in Fishers. Bahn Mi and spring rolls are recommended.
- Tian Fu: great Chinese food near 86th and Michigan. They have two menus, so take a friend that can read Chinese for an authentic treat.
- Sichuan: great traditional Chinese food in Carmel. PreCOVID this was a great place for the lunch and weekend buffet.
- Thai Sushi: Get your fix for sushi and curry all in one place in Fishers!
- The Dumpling House: take a road trip to Muncie for some of the best traditional Chinese and you won't have to ask for the special menu to order (and they have a market, too!).
June 16: Drop in for some time together. What is your favorite summer reading book? What do your children like to read?
English with Children:
Fireflies are amazing insects. Did you know that each specie of firefly blinks at a different rate?
Enjoy this read aloud Fireflies by Julie Brinkloe
pissed off: is a very rude way of saying angry in the U.S., but in Europe it means drunk
