Sites and information about Poland

This is a beautiful bush at the Mission Home


This is the size of a napkin in Poland

                                            This is our YSA Kamila getting on the train to
                                             see her parents before she goes to BYU Idaho
                                                WE WILL MISS YOU KAMILA!!

Elder Hutchnson's Birthday

 
                                                     Happy Birthday Elder Hutchinson
                                                         This is your special day
                                                      We are so glad to share it with you

Present for President and Sister Nielson

We found this piece of wood at the Saski Park right where
the prayer was offered

                                            We took this raw piece of wood pictured above
                                             and turned it into this beautiful piece of wood
                                             for a souvenir of Poland.  It has the last paragraphs
                                             of each of the prayers on it with President Kimball's
                                             and President Monson's picture on it.

Carl and Sharon's 47th Anniversary June 10, 1966

This is a Mexican restaurant owned
 by a member of our branch

His name is Brother Gonzales.  He fixed our dinner for us.

Excitement on our street

 
This happened on a Thursday night about 4:30.  We were
just coming home so Carl could go to a meeting and there
were a few policeman here.  They brought a  girl out of the
 trees and put her  in the van 
 
                                              Then the search was on around our building
                                                      I guess this is their SWAT Team
 

                                               These cars are all undercover policeman
                                              I heard a shot and then they brought him out
                                                   They threw him up against this tree
                                        His leg is all bloody so they had to call an ambulans
                                         (that is how they spell it) to come and fix him up.
The paramedics are fixing his leg where
the police shot him
                                          They are getting ready to put him on the stretcher 
                                         They wrapped his whole body in silver and gold foil
                                            They put him in the ambulans and another girl
                                                          was put in the ambulans too
 
I do not know what happened because I can't speak
Polish and I would not know who to call to find out
but it was very exciting for me to watch in
my apartment 11 stories up.

 

 

 

Trip to Lublin to do apartment checks for the missionaries apartments


Leaving Warsaw you leave the city and
this is what you will see

Wheat fields and crops growing everywhere

                                                           Acres and acres and acres
                                                             Looks a lot like Kansas
 

 
                                                        These grow along the freeway


Visit to the Saski Gardens

What a beautiful place

Flowers in our picture below in the back of us
 
                                                   President Spencer W Kimball gave the

Beautiful Lily Pond  
Just like at home
                                     
Unusual flowers
                               
                                      
                                                                     Different Flowers
                                      
                                                                Carl in his rose bed   
                                              These flowers had a very different smell
                                                               
Beautiful Rose
 
                                              You can just sit on these benches and enjoy
                                                 Look at those trees they are very different
