Morning jog.
Skipped church and climbed 3,000 feet to the top of Willard Spire with the kids and some neighbor kids. Some low class 5 on the upper sections so we all had to be ropped together in a long chain. Pretty neat climb. Two bald eagle families and some goats.
My oldest daughter was a little concerned about missing church. I pointed out the facts that every major revelation in the bible was received on a mountain, The Gold Plates were found on a mountain, every single significant sermon in the Book of Mormon was on a mountain, mountains were often considered as holy as temples, and the word "mountain" is the third most often repeated word in the scriptures.
I'm considering sharing this with the bishop next Sunday since he has mentioned my attendance a few times.
