turkey attack and running water
Wednesday while we were at one of the schools we teach at we walked out of the fence around the school to check a new building they are working on. Some of the children followed us out, while outside the gate the children started provoking a huge tom turkey. It began to try and attack the children so Elder Spradlin got between them and it and I tried to get the chldren back behind the fence. The silly turkey was on the attack and followed us. Elder Spradlin received a small wound on his leg before a man working on the new building made it to his rescue by grabbing the Turkey from behind by his wings and walking him back out and down the lane. Okay, a little scary even - because this guy was huge. Sure wish I had had pictures! We finally got water again last night after about 4 days relying on our cystern. Yey! we rushed and did all of our laundry, dishes and even had hot showers. It was great!
