I was pleasantly surprised this year. Plot summary
Set in 1792, the action takes place during the early days of the French Revolution. Marguerite Blakeney, a beautiful French actress, is married to wealthy English fop Sir Percy Blakeney, and they live in England. The couple has become estranged due to her earlier unintentional denunciation of French aristocrat the Marquis de St. Cyr and his family, which resulted in their being sent to the guillotine. Like many others, Marguerite is entranced by stories of the Scarlet Pimpernel—an anonymous hero who, through a combination of courage and daring, has rescued many aristocrats from Madame la Guillotine, and brought them safely to England. Marguerite's beloved brother, Armand, is discovered to be part of the Scarlet Pimpernel's organization, and he is therefore in danger of being executed. Marguerite is blackmailed by the wily French ambassador to England, Citizen Chauveline (ANTHONY); if she helps him uncover the Pimpernel's identity, Armand's life will be spared. She cannot face the thought of losing her brother, and she hopes that the Pimpernel will be able to save him. She is forced to do as Chauvelin wishes. Contemptuous of her seemingly witless and unloving husband, Marguerite does not go to him for help, and passes along information which enables Chauvelin to learn the Pimpernel's true identity.
When Sir Percy leaves for France, Marguerite discovers, to her horror, that he is the Pimpernel—the man she has betrayed, who had created the persona of a witless fop in order to deceive the world as to his true activities, and who could not reveal the truth to Marguerite because of his belief that she would denounce him to the French revolutionaries. Desperate to make amends for her actions she follows Percy to France to try to warn him. Chauvelin seems close to capturing Percy on several occasions, but the Englishman continues to outwit him, rescuing Armand and the Comte de Tourney, the father of a school friend of Marguerite's. Safely back on board their schooner, the Day Dream, and touched by his wife's remorse, devotion and courage, he forgives her, and the reconciled couple returns to England.

People are always intrigued and think it is so neat how we have this little communication system in the house. Let me tell you, that vent has come in SO handy!! Not only for communication, but warmth. I remember Erica & I cuddled up on top of the one in the front room trying to stay warm waiting for scripture reading time... Dad would get upset the heat wasn't circulating through the whole room, but boy were our buns toasty!!
While Jen's tongue seems to be the focal point, the purpose of the photo is to show her bangs. I was sitting there talking to her and could not keep my eyes off them. :)
This is one of my favorite views in the ENTIRE world. Over the river and through the canyon, around the lake, through the town, around the bend and then.... home.
This MTC provides training primarily for missionaries called to serve from the Philippines in the Philippines. However, it also provides training for missionaries from surrounding Asian countries (Cambodia, Thailand, Taiwan, Mongolia, Indonesia, India, Pakaistan, Srilanka, etc.). The missionaries here are from Mongolia) These missionareis would have no MTC experience otherwise.
This is Elder Dass now serving in Malaysia. I wish I could share with you all of a letter he recently sent to the Philippines MTC president including his encounter with a 12 foot long King Cobra on a dirt path he and his companion were riding their bikes on and their visit to the hut of a "retired" head hunter who showed them his room of trophies (dozens of skulls and about 12 swords with human hair still stuck to the blades). He said that when the retired head hunter had one of the swords in his hands he felt the hair on the back of his neck stand up.
I finally got a picture of lightning it took way to many missed pictures to get this one.
