Speading the Good Word


I wore this shirt to school the other day and got some inquires from my classmates about the raft (though I'm not sure why, because my normal introduction of myself to new people is "I'm Jason Steed and I built a raft and sailed it down the North Saskatchewan"). So of course I regaled them with stories from the raft in all it's glory, of which they were very impressed and jealous.

On my walk to the subway that day I didn't have my coat on, on account of abnormally warm weather. Some bohemian looking guy with a trumpet case in hand standing on the sidewalk calls out "Hey, what about the raft?". Though I was a little surprised, I'm always ready to talk about the raft so I shared my story with him and this guy thought it was the greatest thing since dreadlocks. Thanks for the shirt Scott.

Just when you think I couldn't talk about the raft anymore I gave a talk with it as one of the key stories about following the counsel given at general conference. Now the Elders Quorum here wants to build a raft.

Just doing my best to spread the good word.

I can tell that Kate was there when this picture was taken. Either that, or you and her have matching purses.
