Okay, so you get the swimming and the biking, no doubt - but what is the deal about football you ask?? Well, for months and months the boys have wanted to do Fantasy Football, and for the two of you out there that haven't heard of that (I hadn't either) - it's where you pick the players you like out of all the NFL players to make your own special team and you rack up points based on each player's accomplishments during each game. Sounded like fun, so India created our own league - The Skunks - (don't ask). To make a really, really long story short, we finally got our teams all set up. (After much sweat, frustration, and anxious moments - that mock draft is a killer!) So, now we are all set for the season. The only trouble is - we don't have a TV to even watch the games!!! So why?? Who knows. Try figuring that one out for yourselves ! . . . :)
Yesterday Gary and Judah played Bountiful Ridge Golf Course. Beautiful. Breathtaking. And heart-stopping. Literally. I got a real work-out just walking up and down and up and down the hills. It's not like golfing on the plains of South Dakota - let me tell you! But it was absolutely gorgeous up there. And you could see out over the Great Salt Lake - and the city with the hills in the background. And there were deer all over the course. Just walking around with their little babies eating and looking at you without a care in the world. They were almost tame - you could get so close. Cool.
It's hot today and going to be in the 90's this weekend. Great for swimming. Not so great for cooking in a little tin crate of an RV. The AC can't keep up with the stove. Oh well. I am very, very, very thankful we have AC. Cause I am a certified wimp in the heat. (in the cold too - for that matter)
Labor Day weekend coming up. Farmer's Market too! Yeah! More seeded watermelon! More fresh tomatoes! More wacky home-made food! And more music/dancing - culture! Yeah! I'm a bit excited, can you tell?
I don't know if I'll ever be ready to go back home! Well, I don't want to be here when their 8 feet of snow comes. Great for skiing, but I'd like to be done with the winters, thank you very much. As it is - we will be headed back to the frozen tundra of the upper midwest anyway. But - October is probably the best month there. So - I'm actually looking forward to that.
Later. Mounds of laundry await. Ta-ta!!
jill and all
