Foghorn

We have been having a lot of rain and fog for the past week.  However it is still quite warm.

When we first arrived here we bought a $25 printer which we thought would last while we were here.  We spent hundreds of dollars for the cartridges for it and then when we still had cartridges that were three quarters full, the darn printer gave up.  We now have a new printer that is much nicer (and takes different cartridges) but now we have to find space in our car to take it home.

We have been back from Cape Breton for two weeks now and have had mostly average weeks.  We attended a family home evening group both Mondays.  Bob went to District meeting Tuesday and we have been to the Temple four days each week.

Last Saturday there was a Woman's Conference at the Church.  I expected to miss it because it was while we were at the Temple.  However, people were very scarce at the Temple so they sent the ladies over to the conference for the last two hours.  There was a class knitting squares for Blankets for Canada right at the door when I walked in, so I sat down and knit for the whole time.

This past Thursday we attended a zone conference (our last Zone Conference) with all the missionaries in Nova Scotia.  One of the members of the first quorum of the Seventy was here for it.  He also came to the Temple for Friday and Saturday and did a Temple review.

Friday we did a last visit to Halifax and had lunch with my third cousin once removed, Betty Murray.  We had a great visit.  She reminds we a lot of some of my Murray aunts.
