Victor Joel from Guatemala

For 6 weeks (around Christmas) Victor Joel did some painting in our home and garage.  Being from Guatemala, of course he spoke with an accent, he said his name was Joel.  I heard "Noel" and thought it was very fitting for the holidays.  The temperatures were VERY cold in the garage, but with heaters we kept it above freezing - just barely.   He did an excellent job, was a delight, and now we will miss him.  

One day I told him I liked oldies music.  He recommended a movie; Flipped.  It came out in 2010, directed by Rob Reiner, rated PG, and based on a book by Wendelin Va Draaner.  Danny and I have since read (audio) the book, seen the movie, and highly recommend it.  If you check it out, let me know what you think.
