general gab & General Conference proposal?

Hey--it's soooo fun to read your posts! Yay, Amy for setting this up!!! My good news for the week is that Uncle Danny is now "stent-less" (they removed it last Monday) and "brace-less" (they gave him the OK to go without it last Monday, also). He feels like a free man--except that he's not too fond of going to therapy, but he's going (albiet reluctantly--"I'll just ease into doing the stuff I usually do" NOT!!!) so I nag him constantly and he does the therapy thing. He's actually doing amazingly well--except it's pretty funny to see the difference in the size of his arms--he's been lifting the bales when we feed with his left arm exclusively and his right arm hasn't had any action to speak of in 7+ weeks--and it's VERY evident!!! Oh--my other good news is that there are 14 daffodils blooming in the flower bed out front--but who's counting?

OK--my proposal....we are planning to go down to Cedar Mountain this Sunday for part of the day...we're planning to watch the 1st hour of conference here at home, then listen to the second hour enroute to the Cedar Mountain picnic area (it takes about that long to get there if you drive conservatively & yes, you can get radio reception all the way, we checked), then let the kids hike and play while we get food set up; eat and clean up; play until next session; then I thought I'd maybe take some paints and water and wood stuff for the kids to paint during the afternoon session. Any of you who'd enjoy such an outing would be most welcome. (Yes, you can get radio reception down there--we checked to be sure!) Anyway--please call or email if you want to coordinate food and timing and such!

Oh--one last good news item--Rhyan

  1. Tel has to do army stuff this weekend, but the kids and I would love to come down and play. I was hoping that people would be around. I have no idea where Cedar Mountain is, but it sounds fun. Just let me know what food & paint items you would like me to bring.
