I can't believe we haven't posted since May.  So much has happened in the last month and a half.  We are finished with our mission and headed home in just 5 days.  Hard to believe 18 months have passed.  We are so glad for the experience and wonderful opportunity to be in New York and especially at Ft. Drum.  We have made so many new friends.  So I am just going to post a bunch of pictures in no particular order.  I will try to post another time before we unplug.  See you all soon.
Last District Meeting.  So many good memories of missionaries that we have been with.

Two especially good friends Allen and Brett. They have been great to us since day one.

Recent convert.  Great young lady Amie.  She is a MD in the military.  We need to find her a good LDS man.  Her parents are not supportive of her joining the church.

One of 3 farewell cakes we were given.  This one from Sis Evers (a professional cake maker); one from the Presbyterian Church thanking us for our friendship and ministry: and one from our Addiction Recovery Group.  All three have had impacted on our lives.

We were given permission to travel to Georgia to see Chandi and family before we left and Mt Airy was on the way there.  This is where Diane/Grandma was born so we stopped and walked around for a while.  A very cute tourist town.

Nuclear plant in GA where Dan Broadbent works.

Elder and Sister Larsen from the Mission Office.  They came up to visit one Saturday and we took them around to various site.  A fun day to be with them.

Our final picture at the mission home on the day of our exit interview with Pres and Sister Rogers.

Pres and Sister Rogers on that same day.  They are from St George

Brigham Young's fathers home in Mendon, NY.  He helped build it for his father

Went to visit Elder and Sister Merrill they live in Brigham's fathers home.  They are the office couple for the Rochester Mission.  They are going home the same time we are and they are pulling a trailer so they allowed us to take them some of our stuff.  They live in Rigby.  This picture is outside the Young family barn.

Water system for collecting rain water to water ducks and geese.  Really a great setup.

Same location but caught this goat riding on the back of a sheep.

This is the home (Yurt) of the folks that live completely off the grid.  Same place as previous two pictures.

Baptismal site in Mendon, NY.  Heber Kimball was also baptised here.

Young family barn.
