          Once we are able to crawl out of bed and get going, we love the morning session.  This morning I kept very busy and Glade spent a lot of time at the reception desk which is a good change for his back.  As often as we go—five days a week—we are still learning new things about how the temple functions and how “Church Headquarters” oversees everything.  We continue to meet wonderful people every day.

          This was the day set aside for my hair cut and I was nervous.  No one here has hair like mine nor do they style it anything like the way I do.  Glade came along to be the interpreter and pay the bill. J  Long story short—it turned out okay although the whole process made me smile because it was so different!  *Water sprayed from small spray bottle onto dry hair; *hair trimmed with scissors; *then the shampoo; *very wet hair sectioned into about six clips; *each section blow-dried around a small round brush which took longer than all the other processes combined!  Then I went home and styled it.

          Just before the hair cut, we went next door to the copy place with my laptop in tow and asked the young man there to print copies of the music I had scanned before we left.  He put it on a jump drive—we didn’t bring one—and made the copies!  Oh Happy Day—Now I have more music to play.  I just need a piano on a regular basis.

          We have so many blessings and love being here.  You all are in ourprayers every day and we send out love.

These critters are for Marc's collection.  This is as close as I could come to getting you specimens.  Maybe if you enlarge this you can see the names in Spanish.
Sorry about the glare. 

These pictures are for the kids who might like to know some Spanish names.

We took these pics at the photocopy place while waiting for the music to print.

More pics for Marc and the kids :)

Let's see--who is it that likes frogs and things?
