This cross stich was done by Battsengel. She did it to earn her sacrifice money for her mission. It took her four months. Her brothers and sisters decided because she had spent so much time on it that they would buy it and give it to their mother. That's how Battsengel earned her sacrifice for her mission.

When we were coming into UB the smoke cloud was so thick. When we were on the ground you didn't see how bad the cloud was but from above it was really bad.

The land between UB and Choibalsan is very barren. There are very few trees if any. There isn't a road all the way. Batbold and the AP's drove. It took them 12 hours and most of the time they just followed the power lines.

Our trip back to the airport was really interesting. We didn't take a road or rut. Our driver just made his own road. It was off roading in the Mongolian countryside.

The Anderson's family made 26 quilts and sent them with the Clarks. They opened them on Sunday afternoon. They were so fun. The missionaries loved them.

This community hasn't changed in 70 years. The cows still have control of main street. The cart and horse still carries it's own gas. It was like stepping back in time. The town of 70,000 doesn't have a stop sign or a stop light.
