We spent Friday, Saturday and today at a YSA Conference in Palmyra.  Such a peaceful place.  Had young folks from Canada, Virginia, New Jersey, Nova Scotia and of course New York.  Almost 300 total.  We worked mainly in the kitchen preparing the lunch and dinner meals but had lots of fun with other senior couples and local senior members.  There were all varieties and sizes of folks.  They had work shops, service projects a dance and two firesides with Daniel Rona (a well known Jewish man who converted to the church many years ago).  Lives in Israel but is  on a church history mission in SLC where he and his wife write church history of different countries. He knows Grandpa Craner from when they were at the BYU Center in Jerusalem.  Here are a few pictures from the events.
We had an excellent weekend.
