          It was nearly dark before we starting walking tonight and it was fun to see the lights on the grounds come on and the lights of the city spread up the hills. 

A car came up the road and paused next to us in the parking lot with cheerful greetings coming from the rolled-down windows.  Two men from our ward were all decked out in basketball uniforms and ready for a night of fun on the court.  Of course, they wanted Glade to go play and he was so tempted!  The “boy” really comes out in the men when the promise of play gets the adrenaline going.  As they waited for Pres. Amado, Glade was brave (and smart) and had to decline.  He can’t play “just a little” you know—he goes all out and would have set his back way back.  So sad—he really wanted to shoot some hoops.  Aahhhh—mourning the loss of youth!

The guard in yesterday’s photo told Glade today, when he asked for his address, that the missionaries have met with him already.  Now, we’ll just wait to see where this road takes him.

This was taken at the beginning of our walk tonight.
