Tennessee Trip

Since it's been 3 months since we posted, I thought it was about time. We really enjoyed our trto Tennessee for Franklyn's blessing. Had a good time visiting with the Melvilles and playing with our great great grandchildren. We had a certificate from our Marriott Vacation plan so we stayed at the Vanderbilt Marriott (close to where David works). We had crazy weather. Couple of days of rain, couple cold and 2 really nice and sunny days. We went to the the Zoo (always one of our favorites) toured the university (with a great guide - Dave) I think the big change in altitude effected my meniere's disease. I had an attack while we were there in their living room and Preston said "Grandpa's dead"....
We're doing quite well. Grandma got a series of 3 shots in her knee and it's doing better. Not perfect but better. I've had 4 funerals since we got back. That makes 23 or 24 in the last 18 months. It gets hard to come up with talks. Grandma has been teaching both Gospel Doctrine and a Stake class on marriage and family.
