Last of the MTC and our first transfer!

 

We did not receive our South African visas in time to fly out on the 18th as originally planned.  We were transferred to the Utah Salt Lake Headquarters Mission - to wait for our travel papers. Here are our suitcases in the Provo MTC senior living residents hall - a couple of young elders helped us get them to Polly's car in the parking lot.
This awesome stone and story from President David O. McKay is also in that lobby - love it!

Our senior housing is in the Garden Apartments - across the street and down a half block from my Smith Grandparents house!!  See the small black car in the middle of the picture - Nana and Grandpappy's house is right behind it - leaves on the trees hiding the house. 
I walked down the half block to take a better picture - we came here to visit my whole childhood.  
The Church has ten buildings in the whole complex - uses a Management Company to run them.  We were in Building 149 Apartment 3. 


Sister Clifford from the Mission brought these cute decorations for our door, plus a care package of TP, dish soap and chocolate!  Nice to be noticed - even if we aren't going to be here long!

Inside our living room - very nice apartment - we will be here from Oct. 18 - 28 - ten days.  We are very grateful to have a place to be!
