General Conference
lds.org/broadcast/gc/0,5161,8584,00.html
"Live" streaming over the inter-tubes is the coolest thing ever. I grew up in Utah and we used to get conference on the regular channels but it was never as clear and crisp as this. They even have it streaming in Portuguese!
For non-LDS readers General Conference happens twice a year over two days and 5 sessions where the leaders of the Church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) and other selected speakers give discourses about the teachings of Christ that help us to better follow His teachings.
The worst times I've watched General Conference was when I was on my mission in Brazil. We got it over satellite and the signal was lost a lot. It was heart breaking. We were all crowded in the gym watching it projected on a screen and suddenly it would go all quiet and dark when we'd lose the signal and you could hear the rain coming down like crazy outside. At least that was in the MTC. (Missionary Training Center) Then I got to see the conference in Itajai and then in Lages. *Sigh*
Give it a listen its great.
The point is thats what we did today was watch Conference and eat Cadbury Mini Eggs. I also scanned a load of Aaron's parents old pictures.
One of my favorites. Yep thats Aaron. He can tell you what he's doing in there.
Shots of the day. You can vote for your favorite.
We drove all around listening to Galactic Watercooler, way out to Hillsboro and all over Beaverton. We went out to the Blue House, you know our Blue House, and looked at it. We were pretty not happy about the way bright light the neighbors had shining right into the master bedroom. I guess I can understand that there might have been some questionable stuff going on at the Blue House before and they didn't want to take any chances of people slipping by into their yard or whatever but its pretty ridiculous. Way brighter than a front porch light. I am very hopeful about that house. I do wish the Rock House was more in our range (Pray that it drops $11,000) but I will not be dissapointed living in the Blue House.
