Got this today from our guy and wanted to pass it on. Keep him in our prayers as well as all of us old FOLK.
hi all,
i do believe that this is my 3rd account of my observation of the war. as most of you know i missed the 1st five day of the conflict as i was in kenya climbing (trekking up) mt. kenya. i arrived home to my 4th war in israel, although we felt quite safe on ginosar as no rockets or missiles had lasted nearby.
nobody feels like doing much travelling & people only go to tiberias or elsewhere if they have to for some errand or for work. personally, it took me over a week to move from my nice safe home on the kibbutz & i only ventured to tiberias as a had to take care of something concerning our car.
of course, we hear lots of airplanes & helicopters flying overhead either flying north to lebanon or flying south returning to their airbase. occassionally i hear booms, thumps or blasts, mostly from the north. sometimes i hear the warning siren; again usually from the north, but sometimes from tiberias. sometimes the boom is very loud, which i assume means that the rocket or missile has landed withih a few miles of here. they
are targeting tiberias & rosh pina (north of us), so sometimes a stray lands in our vicinity.
last wednesday they shot over 200 at israel & i heard many, many loud booms, so stuff had to have crashed in our area, but none on the kibbutz. so, we continue to feel quite save here & we hope that this situation continues. today is nice & quiet so i hope that means it will stay quiet & we'll have a peaceful shabbat.
