Update

May 1 - Spend the day in Ogden. Had a nice Birthday celebration with the kids.

May 2 - Happy Birthday on the Mountain. They wished me Happy Birthday in Relief Society, (They had me stand up so the other sisters would know who I am.) We had a pot-luck dinner at the Smith Pavilion on the mountain. They sang Happy Birthday to me. (Stan said I had a Birthday Party with `100 friends.) It was a good Sunday Dinner.

We spent the week on the "Rope course" in Provo. It is a training site for the Challenge courses they have here at the Heber Camp. Every morning we meet the bus at the bottom of the hill and they drive us to Provo. It's about an hour and a half drive. We are outside all day, and have to bring our lunch. If I were a teenager this would be really fun, but it is hard for old people, but we are learning something new and that makes it fun. The weather is still cool, but it didn't rain as much as they predicted.

The motorhome is improving daily. It will now hold water in the tank, and doesn't run out when Stan tries to fill it. Our hose freezes almost every night. The water heater now heats the water so I can have a shower and wash dishes. Stan was sitting by an Elder at the Rope Course and he told Stan how he could hook up the TV, Debbie gave us a Dish we could use to get lots of Stations and now it is working. I had some pictures of us at the Rope Course, but the camera dumped them, so I guess I'll have to try to get a picture of us on a Zip line at the Challenge Course here at the camp.

The Week of May 10 we are getting our cabins ready for the Open House on May 15. There is nothing green here - but the ice on the lake has melted, and the snow is melting daily. It still is snowing daily, but it melts fast. My favorite piece of clothing are my snow mobile boots.

Temple Day with the Missionaries of HVGC


The flowers were so beautiful. Stan and Elder and Sister Smith are in the background.




We had lunch in the Joseph Smith Building. Sister Dalton, Young Women's President talked to us. She was followed by Elder Richards of the Seventy. They asked us to help those who come to the mountain to recognize the Spirit, and to do as it directs them.
