We don't get out much and when we do, it's usually going to the DR. We jokingly say that our complete social life is going to the DR and then maybe grocery shopping or out to eat. The ladies at the DR's office laugh when we tell them that coming to see the DR is the extent of our social life.

Not much else is new. Still waiting for warmer weather. By the time the snow melts, it will probably be time to snow again. I am seriously thinking of spending the winter in a warmer place but it is hard when you have a home to maintain as well. I did get another great grandchild. Her name is Miriam Elizabeth Riehle courtesy of JJ and his wife Samantha. We plan to attend Peter's wedding in Montana in May and visit Tammy in June and then possibly visit Jennifer in the Fall. We want to go camping in the summer and the summer just isn't long enough to do all we want to. Hoping maybe I can get to see Marty and his family too sometime.

I am still having pain issues and I am going to see a specialist. Hopefully something can be done. Life is not much fun when pain is on your agenda every day.

We did take a trip to Bingham Canyon mine. It's part of Kennecott's open pit mine. Years ago, the town of Bingham was a very narrow town of one mile long and a a block wide. The town does not exist anymore however. It was taken over by the mine in 1971.
