August Week 1

It is so nice to hear from some of you. If you use "Other" on the comments we should be able to get them. Love you all.

Sunday we went to Church at the Pen Yan Branch about 40 minutes from here with the Stoddards. They are from Dillon, Montana and serve in the Idaho Falls Temple. They are our neighbors here in Zion's Camp. We got some pictures of the Mennonites on their way to church down in that area.


This last week a new Temple Missionary couple arrived from Sandy, Utah. He is a sealer and is badly needed here in the Palmyra Temple. Sunday afternoon we went to the viewing of Bro. Van Den Berge. He was a sealer and patriarch in this area. A wonderful man we had the opportunity to meet when we first came to the temple. We used our new GPS, which the kids bought for us, to find our way there and back. It's taken us three months to decided we needed one.

Tonight we had FHE at Zion’s Camp. We had a hot dog roast and pot luck dinner. Lots of fun. They had some games to begin with and then dinner and then we played a new card game, Phase. You use a Rook deck, pass out the cards and the lst game Yellow is trump and if you end up with any it is 10 pts. for each one. The 2nd hand red is the color you don’t want, 10 points for each one you end up with, the 3rd hand if you end up with any 13’s you get 25 pts. each. The 4th hand is the black 14 worth 100 pts. The 5th hand is 100 points for the person who takes the last hand in the game and the 6th hand is all of the above. Very fun. We’ll have to play it when we are together. We ate so much we needed to take a walk up the Hill after it was all done.
