YW Camp - 2009
Me and mom accompanied the YW of our ward to camp this year. The camp was held at Tenney Ranch, just northwest of Heber off of 277. It was a great time. Mom spent some time in the pond when one of the girls decided to swamp the canoe. I was a cook. Mom went as the Laurel's advisor. I had to teach the four basic knots, the square knot, the bowline knot, the sheet bend knot, and the half hitch and double half hitch. I also learned how to tie more knots for bracelets. I taught the girls how to tie the cobra weave bracelet. It was a lot of fun. I would go again, especially if it was back at Tenney Ranch.

Mom enjoys riding her new-to-her bike. It is a BMW R1150R Rockster model. She rides to school and back home again most days. She is a hero to her students on campus because she is a motorhead!! You go, girl!!

San Francisco Trip - 2007
During our trip last summer to San Francisco and eventually to San Diego, we took a day ride around the Castro Valley area to a scenic area known as Mount Diablo State Park. I distracted Barbara as we were maneuvering the switch back roads on our way down from the peak. Barbara endured a slow speed accident resulting in a few broken ribs, a broken clavical, and a punctured lung. She spent 10 glorious days in the John Muir Medical Center in Walnut Creek. She has survived to ride again. She got back in the saddle and has ridden to school already this year.
