Originally published in February 2006. It was a very cool gig for Ben. Asbury still one of the few schools that gets this camera-assistant gig for its students in both sets of Olympics. He got a great Italian-designed parka and snowpants outfit out of it...and then moved to Texas within a year. It ended up with John-Adrian in Nome.

The word "terrorist" is never far from my thoughts. Please pray for all of them over there.
Update: We called the bank and found out that he used his ATM an hour ago, though we don't know where. You would think with the Olympics in ntown, internet access would be everywhere, but rereading the packet they sent him, it's not expected to be available until the events actually start. He is likely an hour out of Turin/Torino, up in the Alps for the Freestyle events.
Torino is a beautiful town. Me and some buddies visited the town in 1978, the last time the "Shroud of Turin" was publicly shown.
ReplyDeleteFunny thing, if you have a rudimentary knowledge of Spanish, you can converse with Italians and they will understand what you're trying to say.
