The Vorwaller's have tapped a couple of sugar maples for sap, then cook it outside on a grill to reduce it to syrup (3 gallons to get 3 pints or so). A lot of work for so little. Makes you appreciate what goes into it.
We have been painting the office and break room at the shop. It is looking brighter and cleaner and gives us something to do while things are so slow. Also, planted some flower seeds inside to spout. Then will plant in a cold frame, like a tiny greenhouse, outside when they are an inch or two. We have ordered over 2000 from the nursery, these will just be back up flowers and to fill in if needed.
Zone Conference is always a treat. We are uplifted by the young Elders & Sisters as they share their missionary experiences and testimonies of the gospel. We had our picture taken with Mission President & Sister Jensen, as two of the senior couples we have been serving with at the Memorial are about to be released to go home (the Vorwaller's & the Sanford's).
