Flint's receiving his Wood Badge beads recently reminded me of when I received mine at Camp Bartlet in 1982. Ruth was looking some old picture recently and came across two picture of that Wood Badge experience. I was in the Fox patrol. I'm the little one fourth from the left

Not much happens around here. We did go to a dinner dance last night put on by Smithfield Youth Counsel for those who were over 70 and we have another one tonight for the Stake High Priest. Ruth is at the Stake Center now working on humanitarian packages.

We got Lloyd over last week and he got hearing aids. We hope this will get him to be more socially involved at the nursing home.

We will attend a family reunion wherever it is held but it would be an extra 1,000 miles for all of us to go to Big Bend National Park and with the price of gas it would be quite a burden. We may want to consider something a little more central to all of us. Maybe something in Northern Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado or Arkansas. The year we traveled in Oklahoma with LaDawns family was quite interesting with several attractions.
