Happy "International Geek 'Talk Like A Pirate' Day"...Argh, Matey!

Well, now that that is over with...moving on...

We received our 2015 Temple Missionary Directory recently so had to share some of it with you.

Elder Glutz takes these interesting photos as he is a professional photographer.  Quite happy to have him around.

This is the summer missionary group.  Can you find Sister Seger and me in here?  Taken on the front steps of the temple.

This is our temple presidency.  President McArthur in the middle of the three presidency members.  Taken in the front of the temple during the short period the tulips are blooming.  

Here's our picture.  I wanted to include Elder and Sister Scott.  He is the brother of the Apostle Elder Richard G. Scott.  They are very nice people.  We talk a lot of times and have served together several times.  She's a sweetheart.  Like most of the missionaries here.

The summer missionaries are beginning to count down the weeks/days until they need to leave.  They will be departing the first week of November when the temple shuts down for winter shutdown and maintenance (the engineers big season of work).  That should be Monday, November 9th.  I guess they will all be going sometime around that date.  They are in sort of a panic as to getting the last of the things they want to see and do before they leave.  "Oh, we want to go to dinner and go here and see this or that".  Kind of funny.  "When do you leave"?  "Oh, we're here for another year or so"...not a problem.  We're also moving to another apartment mid-October in a few weeks but we have a lot of people offering to help us.  Shouldn't be all that bad of a move.  Don;t have all that much junk.

Next Saturday we are off to Kirtland, Ohio, if we don't catch the Nauvoo crud that everyone seems to be coming down with.  We are looking forward to a few days away and some relaxation, site seeing.  We were planning on a short temple trip but all of them are closed during the time we are in the area except the Chicago temple so we may swing up and hit that one.  Wonder if we could swing by a certain Elder Segers abode...naw, probably would be breaking every mission rule in every book we could find, I would imagine...but, who knows...I have a camera lens on order, hope it comes in before we leave...

So, at my job...

How in the world am I supposed to work on something like this?  That box is only 6" wide and maybe 10-11" high.  That little 2"x4" electrical box to the left behind the damper actuator in front is what I need to get at.  Also, I ned to pull the cover off the damper actuator and check to see if I have power to the actuator.  It faces to the wall to the right and it has Torx screws in it, 2 of them.  I mean, really, did anyone ever think anyone was ever going to actually work on this thing at any time in it's lifetime?  Seriously, are you kidding me?  I really dislike engineers....and that particular actuator is no longer in production...
