For those of you who might imbibe and need a driver sometime, this is how it is done in Idaho.

Took Cheryl for a sandwich last night and came across some funny cards. Quite naturally I had to share them with anyone and everyone.

Wellllllllll, our church has caught up to us. Cheryl is now in the Young Women's Presidency and I am in the High Priests leadership. We were really enjoying our vacation. For those of you who don't know what I am talking about I guess you will have to ask some of your Mormon friends and find out. Watch it though, they will try and convert you to Mormonism. hee, hee.

Boy it has been hot here lately. Maybe I better do some repenting or quit picking on Cheryl so much.

Not much to talk about today. Just wanted everyone to know I had not died. What a sad loss that would be for this old world.

Okay here is a question for those of you who have beautiful vegetable gardens. Is it not true that plants can be placed next to one another which will help keep insects off? I am planning my garden for next year already and am not sure what to plant next to what and have the most effect. (Probably clear as mud) My tomatoes are doing very well this year but that is about all. I need to work on the soil this winter to help it out.

Guess I will close since I am so boring that I am putting myself to sleep.

Here is a story about Lil LeRoy.

Lil Leroy

Little Leroy came into the kitchen where his mother was making dinner. His birthday was coming up and he thought this was a good time to tell his mother what he wanted. "Mom, I want a bike for my birthday."

Little Leroy was a bit of a troublemaker. He had gotten into trouble at school and at home.

Leroy's mother asked him if he thought he deservedto get a bike for his birthday. Little Leroy, of course, thought he did.

Leroy's mother, being a Christian woman, wanted him to reflect on his behavior over the last year and write a letter to God and tell him why he deserved a bike for his birthday. Little Leroy stomped up the steps to his room and sat down to write God a letter.

LETTER 1:
Dear God:I have been a very good boy this year and I would like a bike for my birthday. I want a red one. Your friend, Leroy

Leroy knew this wasn't true. He had not been a very good boy this year, so he tore up the letter and started over.

LETTER 2:
Dear God:This is your friend Leroy. I have been a pretty good boy this year, and I would like a red bike for my birthday. Thank you, Leroy

Leroy knew this wasn't true either. He tore up the letter and started again.

LETTER 3:
Dear God:I have been an OK boy this year and I would really like a red bike for my birthday. Leroy

Leroy knew he could not send this letter to God either, so he wrote another letter.

LETTER 4:
Dear God:I know I haven't been a good boy this year. I am very sorry. I will be a good boy if you just send me a red bike for my birthday. Thank you, Leroy

Leroy knew, even if it was true, this letter was not going to get him a bike. By now, Leroy was very upset. He went downstairs and told his mother he wanted to go to church. Leroy's mother thought her plan had worked because Leroy looked very sad. "Just be home in time for dinner," his mother said.

Leroy walked down the street to the church and up to the altar. He looked around to see if anyone was there. He picked up a statue of the Virgin Mary. He slipped it under his shirt and ran out of the church, down the street, into his house, and up to his room. He shut the door to his room and sat down with a piece of paper and a pen. Leroy began to write his letter to God.

LETTER 5:
I GOT YOUR MAMA. IF YOU WANT TO SEE HER AGAIN, SEND THE BIKE.
Signed, YOU KNOW WHO

Have a nice day everyone.
