Elder Koberstein and I received an invitation to attend the Chinese Cultural Activity for the FamilySearch group. It was a program and lunch for employees. We have a very talented sister on our floor, from China, that was in charge of all the decorations for the festival. She spent many hours working on the project and it was beautifully decorated. The picture is by a large gong used to start the activity.
This picture is of a Chinese genealogy chart for all the clans in China.
Friday, for our half day research, we drove to the Regional Family History Center in Lehi.
We found it had many of the same activities that can be done on the main floor of the Family History Center in Salt Lake City. It also has many computers for those who want to do research. Missionaries were available to help guest with their own family history just like the FHL in Salt Lake City. It was a very busy place.
Elder Koberstein and I had a hard time finding two computers together. It is a beautiful place to introduce guest to finding their past. In the future, there many be Regional Family History Center like this one closer to members world wide.
We took Elder Koberstein's bike with us. He rode his bike the last 26.45 miles. We stopped at McDonald's for an ice cream cone together. He then changed into his biking cloths and rode the rest of the way back to Bountiful. He took this beautiful fall picture along the Jordan River Trail on his ride.
He saw Canadian Geese feeding in the Jordan River.
He navigated bridges and
tunnels. It is nice to miss many of the hazards of the roads.
Sunday we drove to Smithfield and attended Sacrament Meeting with our grandchildren. It was fun to be with them for their Primary Sacrament Meeting Program. We enjoyed a wonderful meal of Italian Shredded Beef Sandwiches.
I had to take a picture of the beautiful Logan temple as we drove through.
The canyon between Logan and Brigham City had beautiful red and orange fall leaves.
We enjoyed a beautiful red sunset as we drove through Brigham City.
THOUGHT FOR YOU
