Hi cousin,
Your Aunt Charlotte has told me she had a nephew around Syracuse,N.Y.
and has wondered about you for a long time. I called her last evening
and confirmed you are this nephew. She was delighted that I saw your
effort to find your father on Roots. I feel you should contact her
regarding her brother. She does not have a computer. She lives with her
daughter and son-in-law. Charlotte is home everyday and has very poor
eye sight. Here is her phone number, (203) 271-0426. Welcome back to the
family. God Bless . Feel free to get in touch with me any time.

Dear Friends,
It has been brought to our attention that it has been some time since we let you know that we are OK, up here in the Caucasus Mountains.
The regional events such as assassinations in Armenia, war is Chechnya, and earthquakes in god-only-knows how places, have not really affected us in any way.well, unless you count the amount of time taken up on the CNN and BBC new's hours.
I'll tick off the major categories of events in our lives that are occupying our time and energy.and not in order of importance, just as they come to mind-and since I'm in the office, I'll start with work.
We finished all the harvest of the sunflowers, maize, and potatoes before late rains and an early freeze. The wheat has been cleaned and bagged and being sold. The team really did a great job and the government tests recorded 98% germination and 99.2% p
urity.the highest percentages every recorded in Georgia. We are planting about half of our own seed for next year's crop. The sunflowers and maize will be cleaned and bagged in the next few weeks and put into storage for spring sales/plantings. The pot
atoes are in the cellars, and half of them are already sold for next spring's planting. We have been mounting a campaign to sell the seed to other international donor programs since they have cash-dollars and don't balk at our prices (also the highest in
the market!) USAID got a real kick out of the fact that the French program is our biggest customer (usually they are so anti-America). Our company "Horizon" is gaining recognition by the farmers and government alike. We had a parliamentary delegation
in last week asking us to spearhead a national seed program to assist farmers to produce, sell, and plant improved seed.so that is something else to look forward to after the holidays. Oh yeah, we have a full growing season to plan for, and then we begin
planting in March!
What else?.oh we just moved house again.our third time in two years, and hopefully our last! We now live on the eastern edge of Tbilisi, along the river in an area called "Otajala Gardens". (Apparently famous even in folk songs about the good fruit and
vegetables from the small farms.) We finally have a real, separate house and a VERY large garden [+ 4 chickens].so this summer we will have a lot of American-type vegetables and sweet-corn. The most unique feature of our new place is the 24-hour water,
electric, natural gas, and central heat (without a generator).all the things one takes for granted elsewhere in the world. We have to thank President Schvernadze for this.we live within his power-grid!
Naga has developed a research topic she hopes will lead to a publication, on "Modern Art Forms of Present-Day Georgian Women". It is apparent that women in the fine arts are not getting any support from the government, and to some degree are discriminate
d against by a male dominated "industry". Naga would like to document this with a book of interviews and photos of the artists and their best works. In the course of working out the details, she has become active in the local art scene.
A secretary in our office was a well-known artist before independence, and Naga has managed to get her back into circulation. Rusiko in-turn has introduced Naga to a wide circle of prominent artists. These people are very impressed with the range of Nag
a's skills and just today made her an Honorary Member of the Georgian Artists Union.the first foreigner so recognized. Now she will be making presentations and have a public exhibition sometime in the spring.
AND, as if there isn't enough to do.Naga and I are forming the "Georgian Art and Reading Society". This non-profit organization will set up a free-access public library (a revolutionary concept in Georgia) for English language publications, promote Engli
sh language training for young people, and to provide assistance to working artists-particularly women. We have been floating this idea among the Georgian 'intelligentsia" and have received tremendous support for the concept. There are lots of legal and
procedural hurdles - but none are insurmountable - just time consuming. We hope to use one of the city's old soviet reading rooms as a starting point.we just have to convince the Mayor's office that English is more suitable than Russian these days! Som
etime soon you be getting a letter soliciting your support!!
And finally, we are gearing up mentally for the millenium. We surveyed the world and felt, that Mozambique will be less affected by the Y2K bug than anywhere else on the planet! So we will spend three weeks in various beach resorts eating seafood and dr
inking South African wines, while we watch the rest of the world deal with "downed" computers. (This is true, I just bought the airplane tickets.) Also, we have friends from the old days living there, and it will be the first time Erica will have been ba
ck to her birthplace (Africa) since 18 months after she was born in Nairobi.
So as you can see we are well, and as usual, in over-our-heads with things to do in our final 10½ months.then its outta here, and back to New Zealand before Christmas 2000.
