Bob and Bonnie: Just got home from Brampton a few minutes ago. It is 12:04 as I write this. We went to the office this morning and then to lunch at the mall with Elder and Sister Budgett. Then, Elder and Sister Allred, who work in the temple, came walking by and ate with us! It was nice to see everyone again.
We stayed at the Mission Home last night. Didn't get there until 8:30 PM. We had an hour's detour in Pennsylvania because I entered the incorrect town on the GPS. Got to check those auto fills!!
Went to the temple at 3:00 this afternoon with the missionaries returning home. It was very nice. Bonnie and I were the witness couple.
Left for home at 5:40. We hit traffic in Brampton trying to get on the interstate and then when we hit Rt. 400 going north. By the time we got to Barrie we were 15 minutes behind schedule. When we hit Gravenhurst "Ole Man Winter" let loose with the snow. We had snow-covered roads until about 50 km from North Bay. When I stopped for gas I thought we might get hung up between the main road and the island where the gas pumps were. Once we got going again we were running 50 to 60 km/hr but ran into 2 trucks plowing snow. They had the road blocked and were going about 35 km/hr. Followed them for about 10 - 15 minutes. Once we left North Bay things were fine until about 50 km from home when the snow hit again. We finally made it home at 11:20. So it took us about 5 hours and 40 minutes. Not too bad considering the weather problems.
Time for bed now. Love to all and good night brothers.
