Ned Roscoe Update

Last week, Ned Roscoe's wife updated friends and family on Ned's activities and adjustment to life on the inside:

On June 12 Ned moved from the Detention Center to the Satellite Prison Camp.

He now is able to take a horticulture class, which allows him to be outside daily, in 5 acres of gardens of fruit and vegetables and flowers, that he says, rival the Buchart Gardens in British Columbia.

He has taken a job as an orderly, cleaning the bathrooms, which by now, I am sure, are sparkling clean and will continue to stay that way if he continues with that job! That was always a special talent of his, even at home.

He is able to take out books from the Chemeketa (Sheridan) Public Library, with approval of his choices, of course.

Inside the facility, there are over 600 books available, including some DVDs from the Great Courses catalog. He is currently beginning the Calculus course.

If you have never listened to any of these college level courses, they are well worth looking into (and currently on sale at www.salegreatcourses.com).

He is also exercising daily, and goes to worship services on Sundays.

All in all, he is adjusting very well to his new environment and appreciates the letters he has been receiving.

The visiting form that I sent out in the last update should actually go to a different address than to the one I indicated.

Please let me know if you plan to visit and I will get you the address.

Thank you for all of your good wishes and love and support. We appreciate it more than you know.
