We’re in Idaho Falls at a Pioneer League game: Idaho Falls vs Provo. It’s
the bottom of the 5th and IF has scored 4 runs in this inning to lead 9 to
3. In this league, a 6 run lead might not hold up! The company had a number
of tickets available so we bought a couple of them. It’s a lovely night to
be at a ball game.
I don’t have a connection here in IF. Hopefully, this will queue up and
send when we get back to Pocatello.
Today was spent installing wiring for the hot tub which will be delivered
on Monday. I rented a trencher to make the job easier. The machine turned
out to be a huge machine, one which I probably needed a license to operate!
While it dug a good trench, I had to dig up a large portion looking for a
sprinkler line. I found it, used the machine, and promptly cut two more
sprinkler lines. It took longer to maneuver the machine on to the trailer.
After that I had to make two trips to Home Depot to get parts to fix the
sprinkler and put the power cable in the ground. I would have been better
off digging the trench by hand, me thinks.
we had a Stake Temple assignment yesterday morning for the 5 a.m. Session.
We got up at 3:15 and left at 3:45. There were six sisters and about thirty
brothers on the session. We thought we’d get breakfast at the temple
cafeteria, but we learned it didn’t open until 9:30. Consequently,
McDonalds got our business. Ward Temple night is on the last Wednesday, but
I’ll be in Belgium that day.
Heather and kids are coming up tomorrow for a couple of days. Mom and dad
are also coming over tomorrow and spending the night. Dad will help me wire
in the hot tub. He has an appointment on Monday with the doctors in IF.
Having a really good time hearing about what you and Nina have been up to since leaving California!!
