You have to believe there is that big world out there that is waiting to be explored........I really tried to do it all in my 82 years, but have slowed down and now I let the TV, Computer and Ipad explore it for me....... OH YES......and google!............... In the comfort of my home.
Every day fun messages are emailed to me, that I can answer by a push of a button on the computer. BUT, my favorite is my Face Book account......... Day by day it changes with the new things my family, their families, cousins, aunts, nieces and nephews and friends are doing. My cute niece Kristi Ramsey has a fun life in the Police Department. Niece Tami Norton
referees balls games. Cousin Freda Yeomans shares the yummiest recipes. Even my cousin's (on the Goff side) daughter keeps me entertained by her very provocative life......even though I have never met Rose........she lets you know her moods. My sweet niece Korina shares her interests in many things and keeps us posted on her two daughters and son.
I talk to my sister regularly on the phone but her four children and her 15 grandchildren are all posting pictures and their latest doings. These things we could not cover in our phone calls. Then......there are my three granddaughters posting cute pictures of their animals, husbands for Tiffany and Nicci and fun cheer pictures of latest dates from the youngest one Annie. Up dates from my two missionaries and fun sport pictures from the younger ones. These are all things that would keep their mother's very busy trying to keep "grammie" up to date! Yes, thank you to the people that came out with the Face Book......it makes my day.
Now that the Winter Olympics in Russia are over it seems PUTIN wants to start a war over the Ukrane......that is all that is on the news and of course Obama doesn't know shit from shine-o-la......and we will probably just sit here an watch it happen.
Well, better start thinking about something for the boys dinner.
CHANG RAI, THAILAND.......My dream of an adventure!!!!!! We stayed in a beautiful hotel on the river bank where we caught a ride down past water buffalo's, little villages with lots of kids and dogs. To the Elephant village. We played with the baby elephants feeding them sugar cane.....then a large group of us got aboard our elephants and took a long ride across the river and into the jungle......what a thrill! When we got through with our ride the white oxen carts were there to take us back to the village. We watched the elephant show and had lunch then boarded the bamboo rafts and floated three miles down the river to meet our bus. What a morning and we were not through..........
I never dreamed I would meet these interesting people.......The Long Neck Tribe Karen of Baan Nam Peing Din.......We visited their village and they were all ......and more......than I had envisioned from their pictures in the National Geographic Magazine I read about them in. They were friendly, let us take pictures and buy some souvenirs. The many rings are started when they are young and do not stretch their necks longer but push their shoulders down......and I am not sure why the women do it.....maybe they think they look nice. One of the older ladies we had our pictures with was in the National Geographic and on many post cards in the stores. The cultures are so different and the people......different and yet the same as us. The different tribes of hill people we visited are all very poor , but seem happy with their lives and hard workers.
This looks like a very happy traveler in Buenos Aires.......,,This is my number one daughter Pam enjoying her vacation......As you know she and Rob are in Patagonia on a fishing trip, but having a few fun days in the sun just hanging out. Did see that Rob had a good fishing day though. Am I still traveling????? YES, I am in Vernal, Utah for the week!!!!! Drove down today with the Christenson boys while their folks are in Brazil. No snow this trip and 64 degrees today. Brayden got his cell phone screen repaired by a man who came and did it in my kitchen and so we watched the whole grizzly operation!......No, it was great I just keep learning something new every day, but don't plan on changing any cell phone screens in the near future. Brayden on a date and they were getting dinner so Ken and I just did cereal and grilled cheese. 
The latest picture of my cute second granddaughter....Nicci Pannier Trovinger......She is with General Mills in MN and has been working in the cereal department these past few months and seems to be pretty good friends with the Cherrio character..... Mr. Lucky Charms.........she has been moved to the Green Giant Vegetable department now so I expect to see her hanging with the Jolly Green Giant next!!!
Gosh he is cute.......and all mine. This is my third grandson, Brayden Chistenson.
