Swing!

Today we went to see the film The Boys in the Boat, about the 1936 Olympic winners from Washington State. It was wonderful.

I first heard about this team when Sharon Eubank, 1st Counselor Relief Society General Presidency spoke of them in her talk titled By Union of Feeling We Obtain Power With God. I was intrigued by the story, love good non-fiction and when I came across a copy of the book at a thrift store I purchased and read the book. Wow! It is one of the most well written stories I've read. I couldn't put the book down! I highly recommend it. The film is good too. Even Noble, who isn't drawn to those stories enjoyed it. I think you will too.
