matriarchal notes

Thursday, July 24th! No temple going today. Thursday is my day. Floats are parading through the streets of SL, people are clustered along the sidewalks, temperature at 82 degrees. not too bad for a marathon, etc. Picked up a few remarks from Bob Wood on the Mormon Times racing team and even caught a few runners on CH 2 this morning. Parading Tongans and Samoans are loud and full of strong body language. One thing on my mind today is also something I heard yesterday and that is that Mayor Becket is up for an evaluation--he's been in 6 months and what are they going to evaluate? Maybe he washes windows for career women or is planning to send a large quota of Mormons to the Moon! Sheila, Laura and I are going to Saratoga Springs to the Sessions' luau today. We're looking forward to it I walked my 30 minute walk that now takes 45 minutes! Took a bottle of cold orange juice to Judy Evans who has had both knees operated on, washed, ironed and took on the holiday. My neighborn hosed down the entryway and filled my walking shoes with water. We do-gooders DO GOOD!!
