Our Camp trip to Pine Valley






We planned a Camping trip in Pine Valley, Utah. We were able to have our children who lived close enough come with us. We went June 20-22 and had two wonderful days. Corinne got to sleep in a tent, on the ground, ask her about it. Neil, Sara and their girls came up from Henderson, Nev. Chad, Kelcie and Eli rounded out our group. What a treat to have our grandchildren there and watching them have fun. We look forward to many more times like these.

Pioneer Trek




June 6-8 2013 We went along on a pioneer trek with some 200 youth and 75 adults. We had a wonderful time with activities, cooking, games and pulling. The trek was from New Harmony to Pinto Utah. The trek covered some 18 miles, and beautiful country. We slept under the stars, on a tarp, with thin sleeping bags. Hot days, cold nights, and memories of a life time. When asked if we would do it again, both of us said, "YES."  Here are just a few pictures.

Easter Weekend traditions

We love to go to the St. George Art Festival,  held in the town square on the weekend of Easter. Wonderful paintings, sculptures, and art of many kinds. Here are a few of those that impressed us this year.  
These Dolphins would go well in Julie's yard.
 These trees were from brass and other metals welded together to depict Bonsai trees

This spider is just one of many rock and metal pieces, merged to make art. (I could do this)
Then their is the art of Expression....
Great time for all.......Wish you were here...

Four Generations

We took some pictures when Waldo was here, and this one covers four generations. Waldo with Eli (Chad's son 7 months old)

Where's Waldo?

Waldo is 91, and Aunt Delma is 96 yrs. old. These are their children, what a bunch of youngsters.


Sherry's dad Waldo Howard came to visit and we tried to show him a good time. Waldo will be 92 in May and hasn't been to Utah for ten years. It was great to see him here and spend some time with him. If you guessed where he is at, check your answers. (written backwards- liart kraP noiZ,      yarrH ytriD sa yellaV renraW)
