Three weeks ago my computer crashed. After two weeks with no computer I now have a new motherboard, power supply and two other boards. I have learned to take a computer apart and put it back together. By the time it was fixed (no time for blogging), we left for Utah to be with Cheryl and her family when she went in for her quarterly scans and checkup. Check out her blog at
http://www.cheryl2m.blogspot.com/ for an update on that. We are just so very grateful the cancer has not spread to her lungs. Hopefully the biopsy on her leg will turn out negative. We enjoyed spending some time with Cheryl, Ben and the kids as well as being able to help out during Cheryl's surgery. We even enjoyed working in the garden and becoming acquainted with Bob! The kids sure do love Bob, treating him more like a puppy than a snake. Not my favorite for a pet but they come free and don't eat much so. . . .
On the day prior to Cheryl's surgery, we drove up to Willard and found Fred's great-grandfather's grave--Omer Call. He and his twin brother are buried next to each other. When the twins were very young and living in Nauvoo, the Prophet Joseph Smith, would bounce them on his knees. We have some of the clay marbles they brought across the plains as they immigrated to the Salt Lake Valley. They were still young boys and undoubtedly played with those marbles along the trail.
