We really enjoyed the Senior Couple's Conference held Thursday Friday and Saturday of this week. There are 6 couples in this mission. Two of them do humanitarian work, two of us work with the young single adults and pathway, one works with church leader support and the other couple works in the mission office. They are really great people and have such strong convictions about the work they are involved in. Their stories and example of unselfish service was inspiring. The whole conference was constructed around a "get to know you better" theme and we enjoyed the stories and testimonies that everyone shared. President and Sister Weidman also attended and shared some of their life's experiences with us. In addition to having some set down meetings and eating meals together we did a little sight seeing.

The location of the conference was .... like something out of a story book. The scenery and views from the Hotel were awe inspiring. The little town where the conference was held is historic. the Castle and mountain vistas were "jaw dropping". The road up to the top of the mountain was "white knuckle" time. I don't think I've ever been so cautious and focused on every turn of the wheel. One slip, one jerk, one skid and kiss it good by... it was awesome. So here are a few pictures of the place.
