The end

So we were in St. George for the weekend to see Abby perform her last shows for band and I was able to get in a few chapters which is good because I have almost run out of places here to do it. It was sure a fun trip and the band worked really hard.

Anniversaries

So here we are I started this project one year ago. I'm not done but I hope it does not take another year to finish I am mid Alma. Also my own wedding anniversary is tomorrow. I did not even realize that was the case. I may not be doing my chapter a day but when I do a chapter now I am really trying to make it the best I can.

The Happiest Place on Earth

One thing I really like is taking this project on the road with me. I was able to do a few chapters in Florida as I was there on business with Casey. Luckily you cannot feel the humidity through the camera lens.

Dead presidents and cameras

We just got back from our trip to South Dakota. It was a way fun trip and I was able to do two or three chapters. I wish I had been brave enough to film one at Mt. Rushmore as I do not know when I will be back there again. There were so many people and it was very windy. Alas my fine red camera finally gave up the ghost. I hope that I will still be able to use the film I take on Casey's camera. It will take some getting use to but so far it has worked out.

Crayons and 100 dollar bills

I was at one of my old elementary schools yesterday. Woodruff was a good school. I went on the year round schedule there for fifth grade. The outside of the school has these cool crayon pillars everywhere. The school it's self has some great architecture that I doubt I fully appreciated when I went there.The library was open for summer so I was able to go in and look around. I wanted to get a picture of the hundred dollar bill that was in the hallway but I could not find it anywhere. The school has many classroom windows made of those glass blocks and when they built the school a construction worker placed a hundred dollar bill in one of them. I remember many a recess staring at it and plotting how I would get it out and what I would spend it on. I guess when they put in the new gym they got rid of it. A lot of memories came flooding back to me as I walked the halls.

Finding the flock

A cool thing happened yesterday. I have come to the part of Alma were we meet Ammon and he is on his mission to teach the Lamonites. Well it just so happens that there is a field that has a herd of sheep in it with adorable lambs that I have wanted to film. So as Ammon is guarding Lamoni's sheep you get to watch them bleat and run. The Lord is trully blessing me as I take on this project!

Spring has Sprung!

I have been really enjoying stopping to literally smell the roses. I have filmed all the buds as they bloom and the trees and bushes. I only wish I could bottle the smell. This is my most favorite time of year.
