So we were "encouraged" to work one weekend day the next two weekends. I went to work this morning at 6. Getting caught up on all things income taxes, I called one man in Florida to interview him regarding his tax problem. He referred to himself as a "stubborn Swede." One of my favorite subjects. We had a brief chat "pa svenska" and then I asked where he was from. He told me his father came from a small town and it sounded familiar. He said it was near Ostersund and I said I think I have a slide from the train station. Indeed, I do. I will email it to him on Monday. It was then I realized that 30 years ago today, I opened that letter from President Spencer W. Kimball extending the call to serve in the Sweden Stockholm Mission. Coincidence?
