Wednesday/Monday...

Well, Idaho was lotsa fun. We played a lot of pinochle, and Dad and I won against my wife and my mother. I also won at Scrabble , finishing with the word 'gala'. I think that's the only time I've beat my mom at Scrabble. Val had a good time, which helped me feel good. It was also nice to see the doggies. Hal is huge, and Ti's face droops a bit. They're so cute!

4th of July was yesterday. Val and I went to her Layton granparents' house and played volleyball fo about 1.5 hrs in 100+ degree heat. We made sloppy joes for everyone, which everyone liked despite the lack of meat. Yumminess! We played hard, and slept hard. So, that was good.

Sorry this isn't very coherent... I'll do better tomorrow.
