"Write down in a secure place the important things you
learn from the Spirit. You will find that as you record a
precious impression, often others will come that you
would not have otherwise received. Also, the spiritual
knowledge you gain will be available throughout your life.
Always, day or night, wherever you are, whatever you are doing, seek to recognize and respond to the direction of the Spirit.
Have available a piece of paper or a card to
record such guidance."
-Elder Richard G. Scott
If you haven't had some of Ruth & Kathy's homemade Jalapeno
Jelly you are really missing out. It is delicious and we have looked forward to it every year since our move to Vernon. Kathy is our neighbor and both she and Ruth have beautiful gardens where they grow their own peppers.
James left for the valley this morning but he was back again tonight. He says if it's going to rain in the valley he may as well do his paperwork up here. He brought home Burger House burros for Darrel and I.
I made a trip to town to do grocery shopping, stopping at Sonic for a cheeseburger. It started raining around noon and rained all day into the night It felt like a good evening to sit down and watch some TV and listen to it rain. Courtney, to my dismay, won Master Chef. Also tonight was the results show for last night's premier of Dancing with the Stars. Last night Witney Carson and Alfonso Ribiero stole the show. Alfonso played Carlton on "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air." Jared used to do the Carlton dance. He is also famous, Jared that is, for doing the "Lucy" dance to the "I Love Lucy" them song.
Cozy home in North Carolina,
the state my Strickland ancestors are from.
