Ward Fun Run!
This week our ward had a Fun Run . Guess who came in 2nd in their category?? You guessed it. Karen still has her Fun Run number posted on our refrigerator.
Before the race.
At the finish line... 
Pickleball in Samoa??
We discovered that our ward has a Pickleball group that plays 3 times a week It is a great way to meet new people, get a little exercise and have a whole lot of fun (and perspire a whole bunch).
Karen still gets to whack the ball around.
Mark Moors and a few others had a tennis group until they closed the Pesega Tennis Club. While Mark was visiting the US for his wife's cancer treatment, he discovered Pickle-ball and brought it to Samoa. It was easy to recruit players.
The group plays indoors at the school gym or outdoors on the tennis courts. Sometimes the group can have as many as 12 people, so the TVET missionary before us welded some poles for another pickleball net.
Clam Beach --
... or should we say GIANT Clam Beach?
I'm not sure anyone could eat a bucket of these clams - or even find a big enough bucket! One clam is about 3 1/2 feet across and a couple of feet wide.
Beautiful beach by the Clam Reserve. .
Fresh water pond next to the ocean.
Our friends brought their underwater camera--
Clam beds with baby clams (these are about 6" to a foot)
You can get an idea of the size of the clam underneath in comparison the fins.
When the sun came out the clams showed off their beautiful greens and blues and polka dots.
Across the street the neighbors decorated with a clam shell in their yard.
