A New Year - A New Beginning
We hope all of you had a wonderful 2005. Ours was one filled with new beginnings. We finished the construction of our new home in El Salvador, which we named "Cielo y Tierra" (Heaven and Earth). We are located at an altitude over 5000 ft. above sea level, and thus, the name. At this altitude the clouds, the coffee and the stars are our neighbors. We wish all of you can visit with us in the near future and discover the beauty of this small country.
Technology has also arrived here, and we are now connected to the internet and to satellite TV. Mail is extremely slow, so the internet would be the best way to reach us: wj.khoury@gmail.com or susie.khoury@gmail.com.
John recently retired from Honeywell and quickly I was able to give him new projects at home. He thinks I am a much tougher boss!
Lisa and Philip celebrated their First Wedding Anniversary on July 3, and we were so happy to have them with us during the Thanksgiving Holidays. Michael celebrated Christmas with us and is staying through the New Year. Michael and Lisa work and live in the San Francisco Bay area (berkeley), but they were the encouraging force for us to build here. They love to vacation here...as they can surf or climb mountains in a matter of hours.
We want to wish all of you a Joyous Holiday Season !
With Love from El Salvador,
John and Susie

What a beautiful home you have built in El Salvador! It is just gorgeous! The name is very appropriate and the pictures certainly show el cielo y la tierra.
Cesar and I have been talking about going to El Salvador some time this year, and you can be sure we will let you know when our plans are more definite. We would love to see you there.
Love and blessings to you and John.

Susie and John, how fortunate you both are to be enjoying El Salvador...Your home is beautiful!!! Where from San Salvador is it located? I will be visiting on March 30th. I am only staying 5 days. Hope we can see you. My nephew gets married on Saturday April 1st. Loved seeing the pictures, brought back old memories. Wish you the best in the New Year.
All our love,

Wow - every picture is great. We wondered if you can name the east wing Looneyville. We would love to visit in the next couple of years. Hopefuly the Hotel Khoury won't be completely booked.
I was happy to see John in Dallas the last time I was there. We wish to see you all soon.
All our love,
Andy, Wendy, Jeremiah and Dominique.
