Rootstech Salt Lake City, Utah 2014

Diane  Shirleen at the Conference Hall.  We also met my sister, Karen Bradford there.
                                                                               
Salt Palace Rootstech 2014. 8,000 people came all over the world to learn about how to find their family with the latest technology.
The Family History Library was packed during Rootstech.



Shirleen was great to teach me pastels at night in the hotel we stayed in.  It was a lot of fun.  She is so talented. I painted this painting that she showed me.  LOVE pastels.

Diane visiting with Lois Bushman, Jolyn & Steve Bushman at Gary's home. We always enjoy visiting.  I was the only one without a spouse.  Clint was in Asia.


My Mom, Lois Bushman at home in Provo, Utah with her cat KiKi.  They enjoy each other very much. 
Mom has Macular Degeneration in her eyes.  I took her to the Doctor  while I was there.  He said her eyes were looking better, but she has to have shots in her eyes every now and then.  She can't understand why he won't let her drive.  She claims she can see just as well as ever. Ha, I think she is in denial.

Mom in her driveway at 1020 E 2680 N., Provo, Utah.  She has lived there since 1969.



 I love where she lives and I miss the mountains of Utah.
Mom outside her home looking up the street at Squaw Peak.  

I told Mom to look into my ipad and I snapped a picture.  She isn't too sure about technology, but thinks it is nice.  She is 89 years old and the best Mama in the world.

February 2014

Clint had a business trip to South Korea for Walmart Corporation.  He decided to spend 2 or 3 vacation days flying to Okinawa, Japan to see Mickelle and Duke who moved there in October  Duke got his assignment as a Marine Pilot flying those HUGE Osprey planes.

 They live on Camp Lester in Chatan, Okinawa. This beach is just down the street from where they live.
 Sunsets in Okinawa are spectacular.
 I love the reflection on the water.
 Clint enjoyed bike riding around the islands with Duke & Mickelle

Mickelle is always full of energy.

It's tropical in Okinawa.
 Mickelle's kitchen in their place on Camp Lester.
Clint at another look out on the Island.

 The McCrory's took Clint to lots of look out places along the coastline.



 Clint enjoyed the Cherry Blossoms that were on when he was there.
 Cute Mickelle showing her Dad all over Okinawa.

 Lots of Ancient stuff on the island.  It was all Typhoon proof.
 Pineapple Farm that Mickelle and Clint enjoyed touring in little carts.
