Back in Carolina

We're back in the Triangle, ya'll. Flew in end of June and staying at my parents' while waiting for Dave to take his board exam back in the Midwest and trying to unpack/clean our new home in Chapel Hill. Would love to see any of you in the area once we're settled in. Would also love any suggestions for cable, phone, internet for this area. Is Time Warner the best, or is there a better deal to be found elsewhere?

Also, we visited good ole NCKPC, which surprisingly Dave and Elisabeth both really liked. It was good to see a packed sanctuary, even for a summer Sunday. The college group is still thriving. There is also a growing young adults group - lots of recent grads still working in the area, a few older ones (but not as old as us), a few married couples and families. I was a little heartbroken to see how old everything looked and in need of some elbow grease the physical structure of the church was, but heartened that the spirit of the church seems to be the same. We are going to check out a few other churches - Chapel Hill Bible Church (right across the street from us), Kings Park, Good Shepherd, Blacknall (little sis Debbie's church). Any other suggestions? I'm a little surprised that there isn't a larger community of Korean-American/Asian families and singles our age in the area.

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer and that the new moms in particular (Julie, Stacey, Mrs. Simon, Joyce...hope I didn't leave anyone out) are all well.

welcome back to the triangle. if you're across from chapel hill bible, you're about 2 minutes away from us.

julie and i have been going to good shepherd. the pastor, david bowen, is outstanding. only downside is that alot of duke residents and fellows go there, so it's sort of like going to the hospital one extra day per week.
