Ty and I made some more progress on the arbor. We got all the top cross beams dadoed, and then the ends routed. The frustrating part was I had worked through all of them and was on the next to last board, the last end. I put the template on it and started routing it. Before I could realize it the template slipped and the bit went way too deep off track and it ruined the board. I was sooooo close! It was disheartening. But Ty helped me pull out and we quickly dadoed the extra I had and then the next two ends went well. So we got them all up. Not anchored yet but up. Ty also used geometry and match to figure out how to put the right size and shape arc in some corner pieces and I cut out two samples that worked great.
It was such a fun week to be in Indy for a meeting then go down to girls camp for Ward night. We talked about creation and how the scriptures remind us of God's creations and what we see brings those scriptures to mind. I used Helaman 5:12 building upon the Rock and my experience with hiking Prekestolen. Skjelse, you should know that well! Then mom and I went back to stay my last night in the hotel, and the next day had a wonderful day date. We went to an imax, and went all over white river state park. Beautiful place and fun to be there. We went to breakfast at first watch and enjoyed that too. Then we ended the day at the Indy temple. It was wonderful. So amazing with the light coming in the windows at sunset and just at the right time. It was so fun.
I had a great Saturday morning also with a PPI with Pres. Valencia. He is great to openly discuss this with and get new ideas and help to work through challenging things. As we listen to others, and take action on things they help us with, we can get more accomplished than if we try to do it on our own accord. Try it!
This week has brought great joy, for many reasons. Keep it up.
Love you forever,
Dad
