Hello my great sons:
I've been putting in French drains in the window wells and it's quite a chore. But, I'm hoping that I can get it mostly done this next week. The thing is, I don't even know if they will work. What I've done is to put 30 gallon barrels in the bottom of the window wells. The idea is that in a big storm there's at least that much extra water hold capacity with the ability to pump out each of the barrels. Here's hoping.
Last night I was making good progress on Jacob's window and Malia, Allie, and Mariah stopped by. It was about 9pm when they came and about 10:30 when they left. It was great to see them. They are great young women.
This past week I went on four different bike rides and they were all fun. We tried one in Park City but got caught in a thunderstorm. When it rains like that, the clay soil cakes on the tires and riding is impossible.
I've been watching general conference and thinking of when I was on my mission. I think these were my favorite church meetings on my mission. Ezra Taft Benson was the prophet at the time. He was on a tear talking about the Book of Mormon and Pride. That was a great time in the church. My point is that I hope you are having similar personal experiences on your missions. Conference this time was great.
This past week I went to some training on justserve. Cool. Now I just need to make time to try it out. I'm led to believe that you are probably using the app. The guy doing the training said that missionaries are now doing 10 hours a week of service. Is that true in your missions?
I love you both and am so thankful you are serving. Love you.
Dad
