Week 38
The funniest part of FHE this week was two weeks before at Ward Council when the activities chair said, "If you see a hill, text me the address."  They were planning to go ice blocking (sliding down a hill on blocks of ice), but hills are kind of hard to find in Stillwater.  They finally found a location behind a reservoir that worked well.  We brought our giant bubble wands for a co-activity, but, being Oklahoma where the wind comes rushing down the plain, it was too windy for them to work.
Nice and cool on a hot day!
This has been a really quiet week.  Our classes went well, our Tuesday Twiddles were fun, our projects at the Wondertorium are coming along nicely, we finished early at Elite Repeat yesterday, and Church meetings were good today.  Elder Kerr's physical therapy hasn't brought him any relief yet, but he still has four weeks to go, so we hope for some improvement soon.

We've had a break in the extreme heat because of several days of thunderstorms.  Hard to believe that the 90s could be considered cool, and on Friday the high was only in the 80s--almost needed a sweater!  It really felt comfortable compared to the previous weeks.

When we went to ward prayer at the institute tonight, the automatic gate out of the parking lot was broken again--the sad part is it has been broken all summer and just got repaired on Thursday!  This is the 3rd time since we've been here that it's been vandalized.  

This week we got to work out on new equipment in the cardio room at the YMCA.  A kind soul put a bequest in his will that took care of a new roof and a new cardio room.  New flooring, 4 new treadmills, 4 new elliptical machines,  new recumbent and regular stationary bikes, and a rowing machine.  Pretty nice!

This is the last week of classes for the summer, then one week of break and the Fall semester starts.  A couple of the YSAs who have been gone for the summer came back this week, and we're looking forward to the rest returning in the next two weeks.  It will be wonderful to have them "home," along with the new students we're sure to have.
