Agua Caliente Park Field Trip



Presenting our day at Agua Caliente Park, Friday, April 10th. We were in a group of about 40 people and it was a perfect day.
Here is Daniel looking at aquatic critters he and Paige collected.

Look at this perfect oasis in the desert! We stayed for a long time after classes, just enjoying the day. We came away with a few skinned knees from exploring, a true sign of a successful explore. Richard had the day off, so he came with us. Mark was still recovering from his illness, but he had fun.

There were a couple of Great Horned Owls in the trees. I love this photo that Richard took of Daniel.

A Musical



I was part of the Ten Virgins musical program for Relief Society Enrichment in March. Each of us sang a solo. Wow, these ladies were amazing! People generally said to me, “I didn’t know you could sing.” Well, I am not sure I can take any credit for that. I was trying to channel my sister Sarah’s talents and confidence all night.

I made my own costume from a $5 bed sheet set from Wal-Mart and using a children’s pattern I got free from a yard sale. The whole thing was a triumph. Truly. But who can I tell about it but my silly little blog?
