A Whole Bunch of Driving . . .

but it was worth it!
We were able to get tickets to one session of General Conference so we headed out on the Friday before. 
We decided to have a few adventures along the way in “our quest to conquer counties.”

On Saturday morning we headed up to a beautiful mountain canyon to listen to conference on the radio (because you can do that in Utah!)

(sure glad we hung on to our old transistor radio)

There was something really special listening to our church leaders while amidst Heavenly Father’s creations.
We were able to spend time with both David and Allie for a little while.  We had dinner then, Paul and David went to a broadcast of the priesthood session while Allie and I went shopping.
The next morning, we picked up David and headed to the morning session of General Conference.  It was AWEsome to be there.

After the session, we dropped David off at his apartment and headed home.

We were able to tune into almost all of the afternoon session before we lost the signal.
We spent most of our weekend in our car, but we cherish the opportunities that  we get to visit with our children and to be able to attend General Conference in the Conference Center.
