Hello!š¦
The hot summer is here. But summer also means regional conventions! And you know 2018 was an amazing convention! We had 3 more young ones babtized and Bryan had the privilege once again to give the baptism talk. Even though it was held in a hockey arena that was not used too cooling in record heat that weekend, everyone there where such troupers just fanning themselves with the brothers making announcements to drink plenty of water. Just when I thought I couldnāt take it no more, there would be a talk so absorbing, that I would forget I was sweating. Plus the extra bonus was Kyle was with us!š
About 4,300 attendance
So Tuesday we headed to the mountains. It was lovely getting out of the heat! From our house it took close to 3 hours to get to Mt Rainier. Itās a place called Paradise that has trails and a museum. Itās really only about 100 miles as a crow flies from our house, but because of winding mountain roads it takes longer. But what a beautiful drive!!
That is snow down in the bottom of that valley. It was supposedly formed by a glacier.
It was simply amazing. We were about 5400 ft above sea level but the mountain rose another 9,000 ft to the top! We saw little specks moving on the snow up there that were climbers…maybe someday.
oh yea, then we took an evening and went and saw the horses out at the Coates!
love you all!
