OK, so this is a picture taken months ago but it is Representative of what the oldest is up to. Linc had a Sophomore (he's a Freshman remember) game Thursday night at 6:00 PM (they lost to Rich Co.). Then right after the game they got on a bus and drove to River-town and spent the night. Today they drove on to "friendly ghost town" and played one of the schools there then will stay over there and play another school there Saturday then drive back home. The chances of them winning any of the games are slight but they got to try don't they?Today on the local news they showed how the letter carriers would put a notice in your mail box saying that they can't get to your mail box to deliver your mail if you don't shovel your walk.
A week or so ago I was shoveling my driveway (totally unrelated to the last item) when I noticed the trash man was picking up the trash on our street. We have elderly neighbors across the street. I watched the guy who emptied the cans take the neighbors can to their porch instead of just leaving it by the road. I'm glad to live in a town where people take care of each other and do acts of kindness just because they can.
It has been a very tough week for one ward at the South end of the valley. They had three men die in an avalanche last Saturday and a high school girl woke up dead Monday. This ward will have had funerals for four days in a row.
Update: We called Linc and they won the Sophomore game (he had six points) and lost their JV game.

It is great when people do things for their neighbors. My elderly neighbor bought herself a snowblower. She would have both sides of the street done before anyone could get out and shovel. Way to go linc.
We're thankful for our RV village life in Dixie desert land of Windydale. We get an RV problem and a neighbor helps solve it!
Congratulations to Lincoln on doing so well playing bball.
Every winter when we leave home several people die in the valley; don't suppose it'd be less if we stayed home, either.
