Yesterday

Hey, so, let me tell you about my day yesterday...It was really good. The lady that I am staying with here has some property outside of town (that is where we live) anyway, yesterday we spent most of the day raking leaves, and burning them, which I have never done before. It was so fun to sit there with a hot cup of coffee on a beautiful fall day and watch the big fire, and all of the leaves. I eventually even took my homework outside and sat there for hours reading.
After a while, Sherlie's (the lady I am staying with) daughter in law and 2 of her grand children came over for a visit, and that was fun because it was the first time that I have met any of them. While they were here I went inside and made some lemon bars for a little get together that she was having, and really enjoyed myself. I love to bake in the fall, it is one of my favorite things to do.
That night I went to class and we spent the entire 3 hours talking about the geogrophy of Isrial, did you know that you could fit the entire country inside of the magic valley? That is crazy, it is tiny, however, though the distance between the coast and Jerusalem is only 30 miles, the elevation of the sea is sea level...and Jerusalem is 4,000 feet above sea level. The entire nation is like that, almost all mountains, and then the sea of Galilee is like 1,000 feet below sea level. Anyway, that was my day yesterday, I so wanted to get pictures of the fire, and such but my sister took my camera to California with her, so just use your imagination. See ya!
