UNCLE LYLE

Sweet Uncle Lyle died, and Last Sunday Mike and I drove up to Orem, UT for his Funeral. It was a long trip, but nice, I enjoyed having some one on one time with my Oldest Son. We talked about a lot of things, business, kids, etc. We really enjoyed meeting relatives we haven't seen in a lot of years. We learned some fun things about Uncle Lyle. (Uncle Lyle was Ivan's Older brother.) He loved to garden, and he always had a beautiful yard. He taught his children to work by having them move the rock from one side of the yard to the other, and they all had to learn how to mow the lawn. He always took good care of his tools, and to make sure they didn't get lost he painted their handles orange and put his initials in them, (LDJ) that way every one always knew who they borrowed the tools from. We ejoyed a nice evening with my mom, and family. We had a nice dinner at my moms and visiting. Thanks for coming to visit us.
On the way home we decided to take the cut off at Camp Verde, and came down through Stawberry, Pine, and Payson, instead of staying on the Black Canyon Freeway. It was a beautiful drive, and we stopped in Strawberry and looked at a Cabin for sale. It helped break up the trip. I think I might like to go that way all the time now that the road from Payson is so nice. Looking forward to the Family Renunion in Burrville. See ya all then..... By for now.
