We had Zone Conference for the Fort Lauderdale Zone on Thursday the 16th  and I managed to take a few pictures. Sister Carnes with her new missionary sister Holyan. All the zone eating a delicious taco salad lunch. The young lady in pink is Cordy who is the Anderson’s granddaughter. She had a great time taking pieces of cake and other gifts to the missionaries. Elders Brown and Shepherd are companions who we only get to see at conferences and transfers. They are serving in the Hollywood Hills East area – elder Brown is district leader.

Elders Hall and Pond serve in Fort Lauderdale South area. Elders Doman, Marsh, Conger, Rellaford, Brown and Shepard shared a table. On Monday the 13th the couples got together at the Mission home for a FHE.

The ducklings continue to grow and will come to be fed when they hear my voice. The other day an intruder tried to join the group to get some of the bread but mama duck soon chased him away…the picture is blurry because he was making a quick exit. I think the ducklings would eat from my hand but I am afraid they would not stop with the bread.

I saw this license plate picture in the mall parking lot and thought it was worth taking. The Westfield Brower Mall has a nice fountain and sign outside the main entrance. Mary is talking to our neighbor. The little boy in the picture was born just one week before our youngest grandson Colin.

A misty morning shot. We get some great morning views from our deck.
