This past שבת I decided to go to קרית ארבע for פרשת חיי שרה. I stayed with a family in קרית ארבע which is right next to חברון. One of the main things to see in חברון is מערת המכפלה .מערת המכפלה is where Adam and Eve, the Patriarchs and Matriarchs are said to be buried. It is a very interesting place. The place I davened שבת morning was at a family of כהנים who has 12 kids! Apparently they came to קרית ארבע on a school bus of some sort that they were living on and the father, being a carpenter, built on additions to the bus making it a permanent dwelling. In the afternoon we went into חברון on a tour with the head of my host family. I learned a whole lot about the history of the area and about the amazing dedication of the people who live there. I hope to visit again sometime.
כל טוב

It must've been pretty packed if there were 15 people in house made from a bus! Or am I misunderstanding things?
He made additions to the bus. Imagine the little old lady who lived in a shoe. It really just looks like a bus pulled really close to a house made out of various materials. The house is bigger than the bus.
Cool! I LOVE your new background!!!!
Tell Max he can let Dennis know your blog address, or I will when I next go to Physics X.
I will also make an attempt to find Gale and swing by David.
