I read this sobering thought during my gospel study this morning. 
"We are one generation removed from apostacy.  All we need to do to slide back into the Dark Ages is to refrain from teaching the gospel to the rising generation.  All that is necessary for us to raise up a group of Latter-day Saints who are fully humanistic in character - who trust in their own genius and accomplishments - is to fail to teach Jesus Christ and him crucified."

It rained today for a short time.  Just enough to give James some grief on his concrete pour at Dobson Ranch.  I started trimming the bushes by the pool and got the big one done before the rain got here.  These bushes attract bees and we don't want that while the kids are swimming this summer.

We were supposed to go to the temple with Geoffrey Dowdle this evening but for some reason they postponed his session until tomorrow evening.  It worked out for us because we were then able to go to Alex and Michael's track meet.  Alex ran hurdles and both of them ran in the 4x400.  Michael also ran the 800 and won. 

James is still working on trying to get the pool back to normal.  It has algae.
