I worked most of the day stripping the wax off the wood floor in the living, family area. I have sort of a deadline. My visiting teachers are coming tomorrow at 10.
James and I started a new book today. It's a Reader's Digest condensed book called "Touching the Void." It's a true story about two mountain climbers who climb an ice mountain in the Peruvian Andes. One of the climbers is left for dead but miraculously he makes it back to camp. Not really my kind of book but James likes it. We are waiting for the book both Laura and Cathi told us we had to read "Visions of Glory." I ordered it from Amazon last week so it should be here soon.
This afternoon/evening we went on a Razr ride. The water at The Falls has quit running but the stream higher up on the mountain is still going strong. We thought this stream was the source for The Falls, but apparently not. We both enjoyed the ride. We love feeling the fresh air in our face and the freedom of sailing through nature. We got some gorgeous flowers, clouds, and sunset pictures.
So many gorgeous pictures in one day!
We have started over with The Walton's. It is so fun seeing the kids when they were small. Why do we like the show so much you may ask. Well James says it reminds him of his childhood growing up in Ramah, New Mexico. The show teaches good family values and service. There should be more programs like The Walton's.
James didn't join me as I watched the season premiere of Dancing with the Stars. Derek Hough and Amber Riley, who plays Mercedes Jones from Glee, rocked the house!
In family news, Christina Hoose, daughter of Rebecca who is James's sister had a baby girl today. They named her Eden Dawn. Here are some pictures.
