Best Day Ever, Part 2

April 2

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?

Old Home

I go to a wedding and end up sitting with LeAnn. So much fun catching up.

The next generation wants to be adopted!

Farewell, Old Friend

We've been through a lot in nearly 8 years...including a tree.

Been through snow!

While I am so sad at selling my old friend, the new owner certainly isn't showing any sympathy!
