6/8 - Camp and Fish'n

This weekend the Scouts and I are going on a campout. It’s been
awhile since we’ve gone, mostly because I’ve spent 9 weekends up
in Randolph cleaning dad’s house. But, I think camping will be a bit more fun...

Most of the night I’ve been packing gear, plus fishing poles.
Saturday is free fishing day in Utah, so we’ll get to soak a few
lines and test our luck. I’ll let you know more on Monday night’s
issue.



For those of you who get this as email...
Enjoy today’s Jokes!

The first salute received by a freshly commissioned second
lieutenant is always significant, symbolizing authority and
prestige. When I pinned on my new Air Force gold bars and stepped
out to face the world, I encountered a staff sergeant. Giving me
a snappy salute, he said, "Good morning, Lieutenant. Your hat is
on backward." As the years have passed, anytime I begin to feel
self-important, I remember those words.

At a gardening store I told the young clerk I needed some potting
soil. "Over there," she answered, "in 40-pound bags." "I couldn't
possibly handle one of those," I said. "No problem. I'll get my
husband to carry it to the car for you." "That's no good," I
replied. "If I took a 40-pound bag home, I'd have to take your
husband too." She smiled and said, "It's a deal!"
