For several months the members of the North Jordan Branch have been knitting caps as a project for needy children in Jordan. The winters here are quite cold and the hats are much appreciated. They will be donated to a local charity who will distribute them. Up until today they have been kept in plastic bags in a storeroom on the roof of the chapel. This morning the charity came with a truck to pick them up. Our job was to get them to the ground, 3 stories below.
Amer brought his brother to help, but we could tell it was an impossible task to bring the bags containing the hats down 3 flights of stairs. They were much too heavy. As we were thinking about how to do it we looked over the edge of the roof and got an idea (I wonder where that came from!!) There was an old hose lying nearby. We took the end, tied it to the bags and carefully let them down over the edge. It worked great! Laziness brings invention.
