We hope this gets to our blog. We have a few minutes over the weekend to use the office computers so we'll try and get a little update on what is happening here. Wasn't General Conference great!! We get some of the sessions live and others are delayed. We got the last session of conference today (Sunday). It has been great to watch fall come here. The leaves are turning into all kinds of colors. At home we get shades of brown, but here we get the colors like you do in New England. We like that. We are getting a feel for our jobs in the mission office and we occasionally have the chance to go on discussions with the missionaries when they need someone to meet with single women or with women where no men are present. That is really fun and a good opportunity for us to chime in when it seems the right thing to do.
We have also had the chance during the last month to go on a couple of Saturday Ausflugs with senior people in the area. We don't work with them but they always invite us to go to the temple and other activities which are sponsored by them I hope a few pictures will appear here of some of our activities. The castle below is Burg Eltz and the Cutlers on the right were kind enough to take us as a part of their ausflug a couple of Saturday's ago. They told us about this place and it is one of the most well preserved places we have ever seen. The family which built it in the 1100's still owns it and have turned it into a tourist attraction. The whole setting around this place was very picturesque and had some interesting history. Below is a picture of the family coat of arms. It has some interesting stories and all of the things you see mean something in the family history.
The work goes forth and the history of this land has a lot of fun things that have gone on here. Considering we don't have this kind of past, it is great to see the preservation of some of the great history here.
