Nineth Post on the Road.




Lindsay drove us over to Maxine's on Saturday evening. She lives just a few miles from Lindsay. We had a wonderful time getting re-acquainted with the family. She and her husband came to Concord about 13 years ago to serve a mission there. We have been in love with them ever since. Don passed away a couple of years ago but Maxine is doing well. Her son, Steve and daughter, Lynette live with her in Holiday. Maxine and Steve drove us to the MTC on Monday morning. So long for now our good friends...

Stirlings drove us to Lindsay's on Friday morning. We had a wonderful time there. As you might have guessed I found lots of little electrical projects around Lindsay's apartment. Friday night went to a "Natural Foods restaurant" for dinner. Saturday morning off to Home Depot to a community preparedness fair. A few more fix it projects in the afternoon then we left to go to Maxine Anderson's home for the rest of the weekend.

Seventh Leg in the adventure











Tuesday, April 21 to Friday, April 24,2009.
The Stirlings picked us up at the airport. Seemed like a long time in the air. We had a wonderful visit with them. We explored Porcupine canyon & reservoir. It was georgous. Ate out at the 'Golden Corral" overwhelming might describe it. It you could eat just one teaspoon of each item offered you still couldn't try everything! They have a beautiful home and just a very short drive to church and temple! They drove us down to Lindsay's on Friday morning. We shall miss them dearly for teh next two years.

Sixth Leg of the Journey


















04/18 to 04/21, 2009
Arrived at Kate & John's Saturday afternoon. Had a nice visit with them. They are nursing a little lamb named "Thomas" and his mom who is quite ill. We went out to eat dinner at the Wagon Wheel a very good local restaurant. Linda & ventured off to Church in Rutland on Sunday morning and visited the airport where Kate works in the afternoon. Took a walk to an old local cemetery. Kate prepared a special dinner and we ate in their newly renovated dining room! Kate also baked a special loaf of bread in the shape of a bee. Had a nice visit and we all drove to the Burlington airport for a farewell as we headed off to Utah. We'll miss them a lot too.

Fifth Leg of our trip April 16 to April 18, 2009
Off to Jonathan's house in Jaffrey, NH. We drove on up to Jon & Sheilla's in Jaffrey to visit with them and grandchildren Sheylina and Drake and Sheila's dad, Alberto. We had a nice visit with them. Sheilla cooked a special dinner for us on Thursday evening. On Friday we visited a local park where the children played. Then we went to Sheylina's Karate class which was very special. We went to a local special ice cream place for dessert. Saturday morning we all arose and travelled to President Cook's home where Linda and I were set apart as full time missionaries. Jon and the Tinkers were there. It was a very Spiritual time as the blessings we got were very meaningful. Another sad goodbye and offfff...
