Monday, Labor Day, we spent time going on a tour at the "Dinosaur National Monument-Fossil Bone Quarry" to see where many of the dinosaur bones from Utah came from. This is an artist interpretation of what a stegosaurus would have looked like on the drive to the visitors center. It looks quite natural to the setting but not much food for it to eat. At the visitors center one gets on a bus to ride about a mile to the bone quarry.
This guy would have been good sized. Look at the size of one bone of his leg.
This is a partially uncovered skull of a dinosaur. We were allowed to touch this piece.
The fossil skeleton of this dinosaur and an artists idea of what it may have looked like when it was living.
The quarry had a area in a covered building just for us to look at. Some of the fossilized bones were partially exposed from the rock around them.
This week, 5 August 2018, was the B1 recognition meeting and luncheon. Elder Koberstein and I received an award for completing two months worth of weekly in-service activities. There were about 70 missionaries getting this award so pictures were taken in small groups.
Saturday morning was my morning to cut hair for the young elders. We had four sisters show up and one pair of clippers. I eventually left. This is a picture of the young elders walking for exercise as I left.
One of the apartments in our duplex needed a range replacement. It had a 27 inch range in the counter top. As we looked at it, it seemed possible the opening was large enough for a standard 30 inch range. Our manager, who is very good with wood, offered to try and trim the counter tops so we could put in a standard 30 inch range in the kitchen. He did a beautiful job. No more crack behind the range to lose things in. We are so happy with his work. We also set up to have the outside of the duplex painted this fall. We hope it can be done before winter comes.
Saturday evening we attended the BYU vs Cal Bears game. We were sad at the out come, 18 BYU to 21 Cal Bears, but enjoyed being there.
We were really excited to see the thank you to Ralph and Sue Severson. We know them for California in many ways. Thank you for your support to BYU.
Here we are waiting for the game to begin. The stadium was nearly full by the time the game started.

:) Looks like a wonderful week. I was sad about the game too.
My niece Abby Reeves was in the marching band at the game too. Seversons be all over Provo.
