Summer Fun - day 6, 7, 8, 9, & 10

Okay......I am not very good at keeping up with this summer fun challenge!
Day 6
I can't remember what I did that was fun!

Day 7
I worked in the garden....the other front garden....to get it matching the other one.
I worked hard and not it looks awesome....pretty, weed free, and clean!
Nothing says summer like a garden looking like this!
 
Mark and I also went to the temple with Taven Herd.  He took out his own endowments to get ready to go on his mission in a few weeks.
 
Mark had fun fixing the sprinkler valves in the back yard for the third time!
This time he designed his own valves, which probably will work a lot better than
the ones he tried from the store!
 
We then went on a quick ride up the quarry trail on our bikes. 
It was beautiful!
I love riding through the trees and then smelling campfire!
I love the smell of campfire!

Day 8
Well, this day was Sunday and all the fun I had was at church!
There were some great talks given which made me ponder
where I sit with the Lord and the gospel in my life.
Sometimes it seems daunting when I feel like there is so much for me
to change and work on in my life.  But, with the Lord's help, I can do it!
 
Day 9
This day was spent.........
riding my bike with great friends and great scenery!
 
Early morning rides up the quarry trail results in this kind of pictures.
 
I got good and bad news from the doctor about my finger.....
Bad news......I can't get in any pool, lake, etc. until mid July.  If I got bacteria in the
wound it could lead to an infection.  Which means I can't teach swimming lessons for a while, can't
swim, can't get in bear lake during camp, etc.  Kind of puts a damper on camp for me!
Good news......it is healing nicely.  In a couple of months there should be new skin
and it should grow back thick and hopefully look somewhat normal.
I came home and wondered what I was supposed to be learning from all of this and
what I am supposed to be doing this summer.  There must be a learning experience
in here somewhere!
 
I spent the rest of the day working on girls camp!
I got some things assigned out.....things printed up......people talked to.....
all forms passed out.......lots of willing helpers!
I am getting quite excited because it is coming together quite nicely!
 
Mark and I went on a .........yep, you guessed it.....bike ride!
This time we went to Corner Canyon.
I like Corner Canyon because you don't have to work so hard at riding over rocks like on the Quarry Trail.  I think I scared a guy, who came around a blind corner, more than he scared me.  I
am a little leery around blind corners after last years crash.

Day 10
Today is my temple day!
The first half of my day goes quite fast because I am working in the temple.
Nothing says summer like a peaceful atmosphere serving others.
#mysummerfun #day10
 
I know this is not what Ashley had in mind when she gave me this summer fun challenge,
but some days are just very boring.  But this is the "real life" of me during the summer....
and all the other seasons of the year.
Carry on!
