Not A Typical P-day!

Saturday, as I mentioned in an earlier post, we did a oral history with President and Sister Funk in Mountain Green, Utah.  We needed to be in Mountain Green at 10:00 which meant we were up and getting ready at our usual weekday time (if you know me, you know that I like to sleep in on Saturdays.)  And we had to wear Church clothes!!!

We had a delightful time with the Funks, both on and off camera as they shared their stories but also some of the things which they had collected.

Sister Funk had made this quilt out of the bottom part of the elders' ties
when they left and the sisters selected a block for them.

Because we were close, we asked Vonette and Gary if they were up for a second Saturday of game playing (they had come the previous week to Salt Lake and we had played games then as well.)  They thought it was a great idea, so we headed over their direction.

Things weren't quite "green" in Mountain Green at the end of winter, but the Funks told us that it was beautiful the rest of the year.  They had just moved to the area a year ago after finishing their service as temple president and matron of the Mt. Timpanogos Temple.


However, it was passed lunchtime when we finished at Funks' so we were debating about our lunch options in Morgan/Weber country when we saw a food truck and decided that corn dogs sounded good--


They were about 12 inches long and covered in a delicious fried cornbread covering.  The staff had asked if we wanted ketchup, mustard, and/or honey!  I had never intentional put honey on my corn dog before but I tried it with mustard and it was quite tasty.  Give it a try sometime. 
We then headed the rest of the way through Ogden Valley to Vonette and Gary's house, had an afternoon of game playing and then Vonette served us some yummy French dip sandwiches for dinner, more game playing, and then headed home about 8:30 with a stop for gas and groceries...

A great day although I still do need to clean the bathrooms, finish laundry, and other P-day stuff---but it all waits to be done another day.
