Well, life is going well for all of us. School has started for Lisa and Jared. Jared is taking online classes and Lisa is going up to the campus.
On the employment front Lisa is keeping very busy with work, which work apparently gets calls from Africa. As is Kristen. Last week Lisa was answering the phones and got a call from Kristen about an issue, Lisa didn't work that account, so she had to transfer the call. But Lisa had Jared guess who would have called. He told her that Kristen would have been the least likely person he would have said.
Well, the weekend was a busy affair. Friday night Lisa and Jared went out to see the Rodeo at the Box Elder fair with Lisa's parents, and a couple of her siblings. The Rodeo was really fun and had a variety of interesting events and shows. There was steer wrestling, calf roping, Bare back broncos, normal broncos, Denver Broncos(well, maybe not them), and good ol' Bull riding. The entertainment events included Mutton Busting(children riding/clinging on sheep), Rodeo Clown skits, and a group called Team Ghost Riders. They are shown in the picture. Basically they are 3 monkeys riding on saddles on dogs that herd sheep. It was pretty fun to watch.
The main event for Saturday including going to 'The Head', aka the head of the reservoir out in Howell. Lisa and Jared took a couple of their nephews and niece, and their dog, Rybeck. Rybeck is a Chocolate Lab, but unfortunately he only tolerates the attention from Howser. Anywho the Head is shallow water with several mineral springs throughout it. So wading along in shin deep water you can see a discoloration on the ground, that turns out to be only a dirt covering for a 4 to 5 foot deep hole. The water in the hole has so much minerals in it that you can't actually sink in it. So it is pretty fun, and usually devolves into mud fights. Rybeck enjoyed swimming around, but Howser had to climb on Jared's back and take a rest. After a bit of that he decided that he only wanted to sit on Lisa's lap in near the shore. It was fun and culminated with Jared getting a new cell phone. Happy Day! Meh, on the plus side his goal is actually remember how to get into his voice mail.
