Road Trip in Bermuda

This is why we came, to view the mural painted in 2009 depicting the history of Bermuda.

Just a bit of a close up of the mural.

Stopping for a breather.

Just another perspective as we are leaving, with Marjorie closing the gate.


 Some of our older sisters have never been to see the Mural depicting the history of Bermuda, it was painted in stairwell of the Commissioners House and finished in 2009.  Many had not been to that end of the island for years.  We diverted to side roads as we traveled, and Marion and Rita said they had never seen this area of Bermuda.  But when you think about it, they have always traveled by bus on the main roads.  When we arrived, we were given special permission to drive in, due to two sisters having health issues. So our road trip was a huge success, I had no idea how much older sisters could giggle and enjoy each other.  We all had such a great day! I love them!

Ann and her mom in the workroom at "The Barn" When we have a free Saturday, the Elders, Elder Bart and myself volunteer to work at "The Barn".  It's a local DI of sort, they collect used items from others and sell them to raise money for the hospital.  It is one of my favorite things to do.  I get to meet and chat with fun, wonderful people and find cool treasures from Bermuda as well.  This is a picture of the manager and her 95 year old mother (what a sense of humor and love of life this woman has).  Everyone there works very hard at helping others.  My hat is off to them.

Our youth decided that it would be fun to host a "Non-talent Talent Show".  We'll we were all for that. Elder Webster and I have many talents, so sad, none that could be called culturally refined. So we were excited about the prospects of being able to share a non-talent.  Our idea ; ) "Elder Short".  Surprisingly no one here has ever seen a Mr Short presentation, let alone an Elder Short.  It was a hit, we had such fun sharing our presentation.   There was a great many talents and non-talents shared, as well as a good number of visitors some of which even participated.  It was WONDERFUL and fun.  Of course a pot luck dinner followed with good conversation and fellowshipping.

Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints/ Bermuda Branch

It's been a while, this is where the "Bermuda Branch" meets.  It's a great building, the only concern, they are outgrowing this building.  Isn't that terrific!  The spirit is very strong at the branch and by the way these folks can sing, wonderful strong voices.  Everyday we keep saying to each other just how lovely the members are and the Bermudian on the street. Grateful to be here.
