Dearth of Morgan Blogs

June 11 2006

Seems we still have a dearth of Morgan blogs.  But, no doubt with camp being over the Morgans will once again unite.  I see that Josh is trying to "stir the pot again" .... he he he ... like father like son.


On Saturday we completed our "4th Asian Night" here in Angola.  Decy was the key organizer, although she created a committee to help her out.  It was very nicely done with dancing, singing, and entertainment for about 3 hours.  We had about 160-170 guests .... and probably some 50-75 different Asian foods (plus desserts).  For once, we actually didn't lose money on the event.  I will post some pics in the next day or two.


Decy has learned much over the last couple of years here in Angola.  And, she has been the focal point for Asians.  When she arrived here in 2002 there was no "Asian group(s)" for cultural association and few Asians knew each other.  Now, Decy has a database of names, phone numbers, and email mail addys.  She regularly gets emails from around the world asking about Asians in Angola.


Decy is the founder of "Asian Group" and the Asian nights.  The nights have grown from 40 to 160 participants, and many have to be turned away (due to capacity limits).  FYI, once we go over appx 150 attendees we have to rent a facility which would cost thousands of dollars.  Last Saturday was her final event as the organizer, as we are moving to Indonesia.


Now comes the challenge of finding a replacement that can carry on the tradition ... a tough challenge at that.


I love my wife, Decy, and am very proud of her accomplishments.  It is clear that she can do anything that she put her mind to.
