Life goes on. Last week-end, I was in New Albany, Indiana, reorganizing the stake there. My senior companion was Elder Johnson, from Devonshire, England. He has been in the First Quorum since about 1990 and has served all over the world. Reorganizations (i.e., releasing the old stake presidency and calling a new one) are always great experiences, but they are also taxing. I left home at about 3 on Friday evening and got back at midnight on Sunday evening. But I wouldn't trade it for anything. Tomorrow, I'm off to Las Vegas for Thomas Giles' wedding. Then next week-end, I'll be back in Louisville for Coordinating Council. Charleston, WV is on my itinerary, as are Charlotte, Orlando and Washington, D.C., New Albany again, and Winston-Salem. (Interesting fact: the new stake president in Winston-Salem, whom I will train, is John Taggart Marsh.)

Still trying to figure this out.

I figure, if I just try to create a new post every now and then, I'll pick up on what I'm doing.

And pictures are nicer than words.

Williamsburg

Hello again! We're back from a week in Williamsburg, VA. This was our first use of the time share condo we bought last year and it was great. We had two bedrooms, a kitchen, dining area and living room, located about 10 minutes from the historical area. Jan and Jack Woolley flew in from Seattle and we saw the sights, had some fine dining experiences, took a few (!) photos and generally relaxed and had a good time.

While most of our time was spent in Colonial Williamsburg, we also visited Jamestown, the site of the first permanent English colony in America--1607. The weather was perfect. The crowds were small. John had to leave on Friday for an Area Council meeting in Orlando. Marilyn, Jan & Jack visited Yorktown on Saturday; then drove back to Raleigh.
