More Visitors

We had some surprise visitors from Iowa this evening. Two recently retired Luther faculty members, Uwe Rudolf and Ruth Caldwell, a married couple who are not strangers to Malta by any means, dropped by. They had been traveling in Italy and came back for several days on the island.
Uwe said this must be at least his eighth visit to Malta, and Ruth said this was at least her fourth time here. They have been directors of this program, as well as maintaining other links here through former Luther students and others.

It was good to see them, to hear news from home, and to get a sense from them of how the program and the neighborhood have changed over the years. How odd to go three months with no visitors, and then to have two couples from Iowa in the span of a couple of weeks!
