The month started out with me having a colonoscopy and going on the drinking drug Colostyromine. This has really helped by situations :) I was feeling really good so we decided to take a quick trip north to celebrate the 4th. This is the first of a new tradition. We used to go to Elynn and Norman's and watch the Kaysville Parade; but, Elynn's MS is getting worse and she has trouble getting around, etc. The family celebrated at Curt and Melanee's this year. We went to the South Jordan parade, had barbecued ribs by Curt and food galore. I love this family.
The raised bed gardens were our July project of the month. We made the design in a keyhole fashion and made the bed so that it is 3 ft. high. No more bending and stooping to pull weeds and hopefully harvest crops. Because of the heat, they are very slow in getting started.
The towel rack was the next project. Here's Theron trying to drill the holes. He welded the rebar and it is a great towel rack.
At the end of the month, Carol and John Padilla came to visit. They were getting away from an Anita and Joe family reunion and needed a place to relax. It was great having them come down. Neala is in her new home in Texas and they are going to visit her in August.
Then, Todd and Adrian stopped in one night on their way to Arizona. Todd thought he could get a little work in, but we don't know how much he really got finished. No one ever knows what Todd does :)
Then Curt and Mel came to see a Tuacahn show and it was the first time the kids have had to swim in the pool. In the past, they have seen this ominous big hole and been restricted from entering the back yard; but this time, it was free roam.
