Jolene completed the South County Triathlon
Marie cutting Ron's hair, getting ready for school!
OK, I'm trying to go "high-tech" and will now post to this blog....hopefully this will work for everyone!!!!8-31-08
Fall is in the air! The first week of football season and school starting makes it official. It was a successful week with Utah beating Michigan in the “Big House” and BYU beating Northern Iowa at Provo. The Bingham Miners are having a rough start; they lost to Alta High on Friday. Hopefully all three of our teams will win next week!
Marie is back to school, so her life is busy with socializing, school, and work! She attended the football game on Friday night and then went and did some stuff with her friends! Her classes are demanding this year, so she will really have to work hard at managing her time. She continues to enjoy working at Schmidt’s Produce, and we are enjoying the fresh fruits and vegetables!
Ron is enjoying his experience as the assistant principal at Heartland Elementary. This will be his last week, and then on Friday he will go to Elk Meadows and get ready for his class to come back on track. His classes at Utah started this week, so Ron is now faced with homework.
My week was busy checking out textbooks to students. Sally and I were exhausted by the end of each day; we were averaging over 1000 textbooks a day. Towards the end of the week we started timing classes to see which class would win the gold medal in the “textbook checkout relay” competition. It was lots of fun for the students and it was interesting to see how competitive the teachers were……
On Saturday I participated in my first triathlon. It was a lot of fun and I finished….. The swim went well, but I was passed by almost everyone during the bike section of the race….Marie’s Huffy just can’t keep up with the expensive bikes that were in the race. I was laughing because I was pedaling so fast and every bike just kept passing me! The officials, cops, and photographers along the race were there to motivate me on; I think that they had sympathy for me on Marie’s Huffy bike! The 5K race was great after the first half mile was over…during the first part of the race my legs felt like rubber! I was glad that I did the race, and happy that I finished!!!!
Savanna is back at BYU working at the MTC. Her classes will begin on Tuesday. She has 3 new roommates, so we are excited to meet them!
Enjoy you week!!!!

Wow this is great, especially since you gave me the credit, now hopefully if you don't like it, I don't get the blame. That is incredible to do the triathalon, that is something I would love to try.
