Just Like Noah?

This week is fun because we are now performing nightly. Not only that, we actually have free time. After an early breakfast with the Wadleys, Devin, Sterling and I went on a long bike ride that took us past the pioneer cemetery. We found a tombstone with three "Fuller" names on it. We had rootbeer floats for a midmorning snack (isn't vacation great?) and went through a lot of corn fields. We then packed a picnic lunch and met both TJ, Ansley and Cohen as well as Gina's old college roommate, Kristi Aase and her girls down across from the Mansion House. The Core Cast members who portray Joseph and Emma performed a vignette about letters that they had written to each other. They were awesome. We think Jeff is the perfect Joseph. Kristi's youngest, Kate is still trying to find out if he is on Facebook! We visited several other sites and then rushed to dinner so the girls could rush to get their hair done in time to rush on down to the church for our cast meeting. Elder Evans, one of our General Authorities from Salt Lake, spoke to us. He focussed all that we were doing on the Savior, promising us that if we put our whole heart into it, we would receive a personal witness of his reality.

Finishing our meeting we headed for the stage area. It started to rain. Nothing horrible but it kept up a steady pour for the rest of the night. Like Noah, we had prepared, and were ready. Very little of the audience left. We enjoyed visiting with them after the pageant was over. Though wet on the outside we felt a common bond and warmth of brotherhood and love.
