update for davening

Please note that Dovid ben Bracha is now Rafael Dovid ben Bracha. Please keep davening for all the Grunberger children. Thank you!!!

Avital and I went to Kever Rochel and Chevron this morning to daven for the Grunbergers, but when we got to Chevron the bus driver announced that since it's Ramadan in the Islamic calendar, the Muslims were using the Kever of the Patriarchs, so we would be going to daven at a shul not too far away from there and then going to meet an "interesting person."

Naturally, we were a little confused/disappointed, but, gam zu la tova, we went and davened and then got back in the bus and went... to a farm! We heard the life story (I'm not really sure, actually, as it was given in Hebrew, which I don't understand so much) of a farmer who made aaliyah in the 60s (according to someone who translated some of the speech). It was really interesting seeing a Jewish farmer - big bushy beard (okay, that's not so uncommon), denim-clad and with a baseball cap on (not for a baseball team or anything - just that style of hat). There were horses and geese and dogs and it smelled like a farm, that's for sure!

So, not exactly what I had pictured doing on my Friday morning, but it was interesting!

Have a great Shabbos!
