Hey everyone! Well, the boiler isn't being nice to me. Yesterday when i cleaned it out, i left enough coals in the ring that when the fan came on it was enough to keep it going. I thought. Later that day, after work duties, Doug and i went fishing in the canal. When i got back, Steven told me that the boiler was out. Well, it was just before supper, but i went up anyway. It was out alright. It apparently hadn't been lit quite enough, and it went out. Then, trying to heat itself back up, it pumped nearly all the coal from the hopper into the boiler. So when i opened it up, there was about 500 lbs of coal in it. Well because it was just before supper, i just pulled all the raw coal out, relit it, and went to dinner. I promise i'll post on here soon about what i've been learning up here, cause it's completely and totally awesome. This week our speaker is a guy named Chris Austin. He's taking us on a hike for class. Fun fun. I have to go right now. It's almost time for Scripture meds. TTYL. God bless. Love you all!

Luke, Am sorry we didn't get to chat at church Sunday morning. Hope you enjoyed your weekend at home. We are praying for you! I hear you'll be possibly going to Thailand for two months and then a month in Arizona at a Navajo reservation.
yah sorry about that. We had to leave before church was over and we were still late for dinner here. Yah i'm pretty sure we're going to Thailand for the first two months, and then to a Navajo Res somewhere south of here. I'm not sure if it will be in Arizona though.
aw. man that boiler gives you more trouble than anything else! lol.
Hope you keep having fun!
It almost went out again this morning. The stupid fan wouldn't come on. The boiler has to cool off enough for it to trigger the fan and conveyor for the coal. Sometimes that can take a while.
