Branson Trip

These are the Three Redneck Tenors after they began to really sing.  They seemed to be really nice guys too.

Alan tried out the big rocking chair at the Grand Junction Shopping Center.  I should have had him scoot back with his feet straight out like Lily Tomlin.

This was at the place we looked at when we listened to a sales pitch for a time share.  It was expensive but very beautiful.

This is Todd Oliver's "talking dog".  No, he's the one on the left.  He was such a sweet little fellow.

TOFW

Here I am with Mary Ellen Edmunds.  She is such a nice lady.

I cropped this one into the one above.  I kept this one because Emily Watts is at the edge of the picture.  She's great too.  I was in line so long to see Sis. Edmunds that I didn't get time to see anyone else.

 

 

 

Time out for Women was great.  There was good music; did you know that Jenny Oaks Baker is Dallin H. Oaks' daughter?  Somehow I never did put the two names together.  She is very talented.  If you have never heard her, try looking her up on youtube.

I found myself frantically trying to get things down in my notes so I could remember the good talks.  I wanted to ponder them later on.  Now I'm wondering if I will be able to read my own writing.  The theme of the whole meeting was "Seek the Good."

Here's a picture of the three of us.

We asked the people sitting behind us to take our picture.

It was remarkable to me how many people I met at TOFW that I knew.  Some were from the temple, some from O'Fallon, Illinois stake and some from St. Robert, MO stake.  It was good to see friendly, familiar faces.
