Hello Senator's!


Senator Bradley M. Daw and I

Last week I had a chance to go to a "Disability coalition reception" at the capital in Salt Lake to talk to the senator's about disability issues.

While I was there i went on a tour of the capital and the lady that was giving me a tour told me that the capital building is worth billions of dollars... it has ceilings made out of real gold. are you kidding me? They spent that much on a building when people in their state are homeless? how often do they look up to admire their gold ceilings anyway?

I went there to be a voice, and I gave them a mouthful.

Seattle.



On July 22nd after Parker left on his mission to Argentina, we went to Seattle. On the way there we stopped in boise and stayed at the Frost's. Nancy rode with us in the car as she and my mom took turns driving, and after 16 long hours of being in the car, we finally made it to Seattle where we got on the ferry and went to Port Townsend for my cousin Amber's wedding.


We hung out with everyone at the wedding and a few days later rode the ferry back to seattle where we stayed at a hotel with Jeff, Laurie, and the kids for a night---then the next day we went to Pike Place Market with them and went to Ivar's and had seafood with my friend Mindy, her husband Mike, and son Alex! we slept at their house that night and had a great time! The next day we drove back to the Frost's, stayed the night, and drove home the next day. Whew, what a long trip!
