On that same Wednesday, June 23, after our short stop in Bluewater, we made our way on past Gallup, New Mexico where we both had possibly encountered each othe as infants when Linda's parents and my parents attended church meetings together at different times. We didn't stop, but traveled on, arriving in Linden Valley, outside Show Low, Arizona in the afternoon. We were warmly greeted by our dear daughter Ann, and these 3 precious grandchildren you see here, seated with her and their grandmother on the front porch of their lovely home.

Ann's husband Steve Williams is a young, busy Bishop of the Linden Ward. His time is split between Church leadership responsibilities, his law practice as a criminal defense lawyer which takes him all over the vastness of Navaho and Apache counties and beyond, and Ann and the children here at the home on Burton Rd.

Despite their busy lives, they always make us feel wanted and welcome, especially on this day as we finally were reunited after so many months of being on our mission in Virginia.
